I stated back in the fall of 2001, what appeared to be the obvious way to fight Terrorism successfully:

War 2001!--The Shortest, Surest Path To Victory. I think my approach avoids the problems that you cite, while rallying the forces of tradition and legality in almost every land to our side.

I'm not nearly so optimistic that the current fight isn't at base about religion. And it may get much uglier. But true or not, let's frame the rhetoric such that its beyond doubt that the bin Ladenists are the source of the violence and America is acting solely out of self-defence motivations. The clearer the choice, the easier, I hope, it will make it for fence sitters to side with us.
