Cherry-picking the Josh/Donna makeout session episodes is totally a viable strategy for S7 WW. It's like watching the all-Methos, only-Methos Highlander; sure, there's some other stuff, but you're really just watching for that anyway, so why not admit it?
Also, re: the whole Osama thing: it's complicated over here, y'all. I don't think anyone seriously thinks that his death is gonna reduce terrorism - in fact, a lot of the news stories are taking the "potential martyrdom boost" angle - but. It's a symbolic catharsis, killing the guy who attacked us on our territory for the first time in sixty years and then spent the next ten popping up to go "neener neener." It's not sensible, but we made our own boogeyman, and now, having killed him, people are getting a sort of grim satisfaction out of it.
