Someone convinced Bush that he couldn’t name Islam as the enemy because of the sheer numbers of people he’d then be at war with.

Of course, Political Correctness and wanting not to be called names probably played a part in that as well.

He sure as hell couldn’t blame the people who funded Bin Laden EITHER some reason...

Yep... Bush said in a famous speech...”you’re either on the side of the terrorists or your on the side of America. And we will treat those who harbor terrorists exactly as terrorists.” That was the exact right attitude, but he wasn’t politically able to make that happen. I don’t know for sure why, but it was our chance.
