Why a "war on terror"?? It's a bad idea

[jimmoyer]

I guess I'm witnessing two camps of propaganda.

I see the lock step thinking on both sides.



In between sits the truth, a casualty by the believers
on both sides of this argument concerning the origins
of terrorism and crime.

"war on terror" will end once Bush's presidency ends.

I hope you're right......

Gosh, "I'm tired of being right."

It would be quite interesting to stop fighting a
war on terrorism.

That way people can see if it will ever actually stop.

I suspect the terrorists will always find a reason.

You won't use the same reason to be a terrorist.

But they will.

The idea of not fighting terrorists is not being floated.

The point being made is that the effort has a naming problem.
