911 was a crime, not an act of war....
One of the biggest distractions from the real terror threat....is THE WAR!
DUBYA WAS DETERMINED TO HAVE 911 SEEN IN TERMS OF WAR.....
AND NOW WE ARE STUCK IN IRAQ USING THE "WRONG TOOL FOR THE JOB."
Most of the real progress has been make ON THE CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION FRONT..... Government to Government law enforcement is doing the heavy lifting....
Even while the US military is bogged down in Iraq doing God knows what! Fixing sewers and organizing elections with obvious outcomes.
THE BEST WAY TO FIGHT TERROR BY GROUPS OF INDIVIDUALS IS EXACTLY LIKE FIGHTING ORGANIZED CRIME....WITH GOOD SOLID POLICE WORK.
INVADING AN ENTIRE COUNTRY JUST BECAUSE THERE MAY BE SOME POSSIBLE TERRORISTS LIVING THERE IS A WASTE OF LIVES AND MONEY....AND LIKELY ACCOMPLISHES LITTLE.
Therein is the failure of Dubya's "war on terror." It's not a war and it never was one....yet three years into this mess...Dubya still doesn't get it.
