FBI broke law for years in phone record searches

I don't pretend to be a military strategist. But lets look at recent events and see what we can learn from our actions and their results. We've been messing with Bin Laden for years. I'm busy today so can't do my typical research, so please bear with me. I don't know the specific attacks, but he's been at it for a while. We've always responded in some manner with cruise missles or what have you.

Result: It didn't take care of Bin Laden. He can still attack us.

More recently we started two full on wars.

Result: It didn't take care of Bin Laden. He can still attack us. It has cost us more lives than he has taken through his attacks and more money than I can wrap my head around. It has divided our country and even lead to patriotic Americans being called un-American.

On the whole, it seems our current approach approach seems to be doing Bin Laden's work for him.
