One side is barbaric or did you forget 9/11 or the brutal treatment of women in afganistan or the cole or kenya or........
And the other side is consumed with defeating the barbarians. And yes their ideology has caused the problem which is now iraq which i would argue didnt have to end up this way. What i mean it is much more an operations problem in iraq than ideology. Do you really think neocons really think the war effort is firing on all cylinders? mike

I think that is an absurd comparisons. To compare Bush to bin Laden is insane. The jihadists or islamofascists kidnap innocent civilians from their own country and behead them if impossible demands are not met. Our soldiers are imprisoned if they punish the prisoners. As well they should.

There is no accountability if the Islamic world of terrorism. Most of the violence is encouraged by the state. Can you imagine the public reaction in this country if Bush offered reward money to Christians or Jews to commit murder against anyone of Middle Eastern descent. Unthinkable!! So is your suggestion that Bush and bin Laden share the same ideology.
