description of freedom fighter.

I think I can solve this constant debate what a Freedom Fighter and a Terrorist is.

FREEDOM FIGHTER: Guy on our side.

TERRORIST: Guy on other side.

It is the only definition I have found that consistently explains all the groups that have been labeled by State department...I have not forgotten to pick up the debate on terrorism. I am just leaving it for another day.

But I know what I want. I want an America in which foreign policy is set based on Ideals of America and not based on who will pay off best.

And I want a world in which the rule of law runs supreme. Initially I don't even care if that law is any good. Because even if the non-land owners, the blacks, the women, and the indians are not allowed to vote, over time the laws will be perfected and so will be the world.

I want to see the United States work hard to establish international bodies with binding authority and neither let other hide nor its own politicians hide behind the veil of "national interest" to support atrocities.

When we take steps towards that, we have taken the greatest step towards world stability.
