The US has spent trillions on the war, and has statistically increase terrorism. Thousands of civilians have been killed. What is the point of it all?

Please leave politics out of it. While I dislike Trump, it has no relevance to the conversation.

No, terrorism is something that cannot be stopped... Random acts of violence have happened throughout human history...

Human beings have the potential to be destructive and hateful....
It's as meaningless as a "War on Love" or a "War on Kindness."

It is basically a business.

Yeah, big business!

Why not spend those trillions on healthcare or roads or something.

I'm sure the lion's share of the profits goes to the top of the food chain...
