All this terrorism will end when one of two things have happened: Either we have killed all of them, or the ones we haven't killed get tired of dying. To quote Bush, "you're either with us or against us." It is so classic leftist mentality to never blame the person who tries to kill you. Instead, you blame the enemy of the person who tried to kill you.

The bombing in Spain was not AlQaeda flexing it's muscle, it was a decimated AlQaeda with few options left, reduced to attacking an easy target. WIth Morrocco next door infiltrating was easy.

In his speech to Congress after 9/11, I believe the President said "You are either with us, or you are with the terrorists."

To me, it seemed an odd phrasing at the time. Your phrasing is more natural.

But now, I really prefer how the President (or his writer) phrased it. It leaves no wiggle room. You cannot be both against us and against the terrorists, which would be possible with a "you are with us or against us" phrasing.

By saying "with us or with them," there is no sidleline in this ballgame. No third way allowed!
