Terrorism refers to a strategy of using violence, social threats, or coordinated attacks, in order to generate fear, cause disruption, and ultimately, bring about compliance with specified political, religious, or ideological demands.

We are fighting the people responsiable for useing this Strategy....Called terrorists...

Hence the War on terror.

I still dont see why you guys have to be over critical of the phrase, because in general it amkes complete sense.

If you let your guard down so does "whiter than white". The main problem I have with the phrase is it affords complete accomodation of the underlying assumption that the only place you'll find a solution is at the end of a gun.

 

[Jersay]

Agreed. Terrorism has been going on for centuries. Even with this war on terrorism you might weaken it and clap yourself on the back but at some point in time terrorism will occur. It's part of human and the evention of explosions and weapons and such.

Fighting Afgan terrorist, and extreamist who support the use of terrorism to attack the west. Remember the Afgans also have an army fighting the Taliban/terrorist/extreamists.

That statement really bugs me. We're not fighting Afghans, we're fighting islamic militants. There IS a difference. In Iraq, around 80% of isurgence aren't Iraqi. In Afghanistan the same rule applies; the vast majority of those we're fighting are of Syrian and/or Saudi Arabian decent.
