True. But can you imagine FDR saying something like "On December 7th, 1941 we were attacked by Japan. Most Japanese are very peaceful, but a few of them have perverted the Bushido code."
No, FDR told it like it was, and rallied the nation. Bush did not. I can't give him a pass on that.
Most probably are/were.
The Bush Doctrine (”we will make no distinction between the terrorists and the nations that harbor them”) was the single most effective policy in generations.
