This argument is irrelevant...what IS relavent is that

1: There is a REAL enemy out there.

2: The nature of that enemy.

The enemy is, according ot the Bi-partisan 911 Commission:

"Our effort should be accompanied by a preventive strategy that is as much, or more, political as it is military.The strategy must focus clearly on the Arab and Muslim world, in all its variety.

But the enemy is not just “terrorism,” some generic evil. This vagueness
blurs the strategy.The catastrophic threat at this moment in history is more specific. It is the threat posed by Islamist terrorism, its affiliates, and its ideology. That stream is motivated by religion and does not distinguish politics from religion, thus distorting both."

meaning THIS war is not a bunch of Lone Nuts like the Uni Bomber, but coordinated operation of many players on many continents all with a binding ideology of Ethnocentric POlitical Islam. They are terrorizing Malaysia, Indonesia, China, as well as Sudan, Egypt, Spain, Russia, Netherlands, and NYC.

Terrorism is NOT our enemy. IslamoFascism is.

"Terrorism is NOT our enemy. IslamoFascism is."

I don't disagree with this. In fact, I think it is absolutely vital for us to stay focused on defeating the specific Islamic terrorists in the middle east that are preventing a large portion of the world's population from obtaining freedom and who are posing a very real threat to the safety of all Earth's population.

My comment had no "argument" attached to it. I was simply being accurate.
