What part of the declaration of the war on terror do you not understand? We declared war on terrorism. We declared war on the Taliban. We did NOT declare war on Islam, and for a very good reason too.

The opposition would like to make this out to be another western crusade against moslems, and thereby rally support for the Jihad. Most moslems understand Jihad as a defensive measure against outside aggression (those that recognise it as a sixth pillar of islam anyway). Our argument is with those hate-filled close-minded narrow interpretive fundamentalist idiots who think a shortcut to heaven consists of blowing up people. If we make that clear, we will get the majority of moslems on our side. If we just declare war on all moslems, we can hardly complain if all of them start fighting us. Its called tactics.

Now, if by “war on Islam” you are referring to the culture clash between the islamic and judeo-christian interpretations of how we should live our lives, then I would agree with you - but that is a war of idealogies, and that is fought on a different battleground.

I don’t know what rock you live under, but the “war on terror” doesn’t exist anymore. We now have the “overseas contingency plan” According to the DHS (to which Barry Hussein just appointed several muslims) there is no no such thing as “terrorism” anymore, only “man caused disasters”

Wake up! Watch the video at the link I posted in #9

I'm assuming you're British. With what you say "Most moslems understand Jihad as a defensive measure against outside aggression"

Please explain the muslim violence that is replete throughout the 13 centuries of the recorded existence of "Islam"

Your country is on the brink of Dhimmitude. Your populace will be subject to sharia law within a few decades. Wake up.
