No, because I don't accept the analogy to WWII. These are very different sorts of conflict.

Yeah they are... Neither the Nazis, nor the Japanese, succeeded in killing 3,000 innocent American civilians on the US mainland.

Pearl Harbor was located in a US territorial holding.

The other difference is that not only did we defeat the country that harbored the Islamo-Fascists (Afghanistan), we chose to take a step necessary toward pressuring the other corrupt regimes in the region to stop supporting/tolerating Islamo-Fascist elements in their midst.

Other than that.. the analogy is VERY similiar.
