The major disagreement is on how to fight it.
My own view would of been fighting a total intelligence led black ops war. Tracking down terrorist leaders and assassinating them.
The Israeli model on a global scale.
We have the means, the equipment and the personal to carry out such a op.
On Iraq the question is why are we there.
Saddam has been removed and with him the threatened Nuclear, Biological and Chemical arsenal.
To bring them democracy they don’t seem to want it, its going to take a lot more troops and a lot of money and resources to deal with this crisis.
A Black ops might not look sexy and tv visual but I bet by now we would of eliminated most of the top terrorist cadre.
Instead using conventional means we are fighting and killing the foot soldiers while Osama Bin Laden and his ilk are still running free.
Now that does not make me anti Bush, that does not make me anti American, or liberal.
But what I have seen is polarizing of views on both sides which allows little room for flexibility in thought or tactics.
