Now we are at war again. This time with an enemy that has no borders, no country, no government, and no recognizable army.

**Sigh** Then it's not a "war." Look up the definition. Anyone who seriously talks about a "war on terror" (or a war on poverty or drugs) should be led by the hand to a nice quiet room where he can't harm anyone.

This, of course, brings us to the attack on September 11, 2001.

Wasn't our own beloved C.I.A. funding Al Qaeda at one time? Why doesn't anyone ever mention that? And if they do, it's under the stealth cover of euphimisms like "blowback." Is there something intrinsically patriotic about forgetting the ham-fisted and blunderous doings of the C.I.A.?

Islam seems to have no limit to the evil it will inflict on others.

Wasn't there a Christian nation that dropped two nuclear bombs on civilian targets? Nevermind.

Idiots.... idiots... everywhere.

Suppose. Just suppose I reject your choice of definition of war.
Just suppose.

In an openly declared war, ongoing for years, there are no civilian targets.
We have never declared a war on anyone on religious grounds.

The islamic animals do not fail for a single day to define their murderous, primitive and mindless mass murder worldwide in religious terms. Their mosques preach it daily, their press screams it hysterically.

Are you mentally challenged? or simply an enemy plant?

That is but ONE minor example of what this "holy" book and its EVIL religion, advocates.

I have. The author's use of the word is correct. Your statement is not.

Anyone who seriously talks about a "war on terror" (or a war on poverty or drugs) should be led by the hand to a nice quiet room where he can't harm anyone.

While it is certainly appropriate to argue the semantic merits of those phrases, your qualifications to render such a judgement on those who use them are dubious, particularly in light of your demonstrated lack of understanding of the nature of war. Sorry, Petronius, you are no Arbiter.
