News flash: Al Qaeda isn't exhausted. They've been energized since 9/11, and no amount of negotiation, settlement, or denial is going to "exhaust" them Exactly, which is why that treating terrorism as an act of war instead of an international crime is a losing proposition. I want to treat them like uncommon crooks. I dont' want to treat them like a legitimate political entity. TP

TP, If this were really a war it would end like most wars, through negotiation and settlement after the sides exhaust themselves. News flash: Al Qaeda isn't exhausted. They've been energized since 9/11, and no amount of negotiation, settlement, or denial is going to "exhaust" them. They are waging a war against you and I, and all you want to do is treat them like common crooks and anarchists. That way you can not only avoid the reality of jihad, but you can also blame it all on Bush. I think what TP is saying is that we can't treat them like they are another nation and attack them like we attacked Iraq. That's the only war we know how to fight. We have to go underground and get them one cell at a time. Unfortunately, our leaders are 'old school' and want to have wars with countries thinking that in the process that will eliminate al Qaeda. It won't. ted
