3 1/2 years ago the US gov declared "War on Terrorism" and I
have yet to figure out, WHERE are all the terrorists?
Psst. Don't tell anyone, but I know where they are. They're hiding in
the
exact same place where Saddam Hussein has hidden all his nuclear
weapons.
I think this is why the "Global War on Terrorism" became the "Global
Struggle Against Violent Extremists."
Yeah, of course -- you expect struggles to be vague and ill-defined,
have tenuous goals, go on forever and probably be unwinnable. And it
might help recruitment in the armed forces; parents who aren't
comfortable sending their kids off to war might not mind as much
thinking they'll just be struggling a little.
What I'm wondering is why we still have anyone held in Guantanamo.
Presumably there's *really* no legal justification for holding
"prisoners of struggle".
