Looks as if Lew Dobbs (CNN Moneyline) has opened the door of reality by calling global terrorism by its real name: Islamism.
So in the last week we've heard of special security measures to be applied to Muslim males entering the United States, and an increasing insistence to precisely name our real enemy rather than the absurd abstraction of "the war on terrorism."
Prediction: within a few short weeks someone in the WH will identify Pakistan as the new global nexus of Islamist terrorism. This will have a sobering effect on Pakistan's war aims regarding India.

You took the words right out of my keyboard. Heard Lou talking about it again this morning on a rerun of his show from last night. I think we will be money ahead when we begin calling this war what it really is, it may be politically incorrect but it boils down to a religious war. It's certainly not the Buddhists, Hindus, Protestants, Catholics, or Jews who are flying airplanes into buildings or blowing up buses. It's a war between us and the "Islamists" as Lou says.
