We are not at war with "Terrorists," Kumar. We are at war with Militant Muslims.

Nothing I have seen or read in the media leads me to the conclusion that we do not have a "War on Terrorism", and instead have a war on "Militant Muslims".

Last night, I heard President Bush on Larry King Live. He did not say anything that would lead me to infer what you are stating.

Why doesn't our leadership say simply and honestly the same thing?

I think that failure to do so may actually end up costing Bush his re-election, and he will only have himself to blame. I hope he gives up the politically correct blather ASAP. Maybe it is still better late than never.

And I don't think that it will be taken as an affront by most Muslims. To the opposite, it will make it clear to the moderate majority that we are taking a stand firmly on their side.
