no it aint a war, Wars have some rules and are fought by soldiers not barbarians.
you see this is different kind of fight a battle of wills they want to demoralize you and hurt you by hiding.
things have reached to a point where lives had to be lost so why not those should be of close ones of terrorists, make them know if they hurt ordinary civilians their owns would be hurt as well in first place before even search for him starts and i can assure you atleast 80 % of bombings would stop.
this aint go away like this by just fighting them to be very frank with you, not necessary to kill them but hurt them where it hurts most.
