I can't agree with you, Nadine. Democrats have had little or no opportunity to really weigh in on the war on terror.

I don't know if you are familiar with how easy it is in this country to establish a shell company, but Senator Levin has focused on the need to restrict the ability of shell companies to launder money and funnel financial aid to terror groups. I'll have to do some research, but I don't think he's gotten any support yet from the Bushies on it.

Also, as for dealing through trials.....no, that's not the issue. The left isn't picky about how terrorist groups are disposed of. They can be assasinated or adjudicated. The distinction is tracking them down thru surveillance, infiltration, covert ops, etc. as opposed to clumsy and costly conventional warfare.

If you compare terror groups to organized crime, your approach would be akin to blowing up Chicago to catch a few mobsters.
