It has nothing to due with faith.
We know Bin Laden was behind the first attack and we already have
considerable evidence that he and his associates were behind this
one. We are taking the necessary time to gather evidence properly.
Find me another major conflict in all of history where one of the
combatants has acted more reasonably.
We have both the ability and the resources to have struck back days
ago at anyone we choose to. We are not acting impulsively here.
This is not going to be a quick retaliation raid, we are preparing
to lay siege.

Once again it has nothing to due with faith.
I suggest you adopt a wait and see attitude.
