Since Al Queda has merely reformed elsewhere, what did we actually win? Wasn't it better when we knew where they were? I think it was better. We won the right to rebuild Afghanistan- a country that will no doubt blame us not only for the damage we did, but for all the other damage done before we got there. Maybe we can "win" the rights to rebuild Iraq too. Like the war on drugs, is the war on terror winnable without a Big Brother like presence? I'm not sure it is. We may have to choose between accepting a certain amount of terror in our lives, and losing our freedom (both in terms of civil liberties and in terms of our economic freedom).
