So then terrorists aren't fighting a war? Then they should be tried in court, I guess, if what you say is true. I thought they were fighting a war against our way of life.

We are apparently talking about two different things, and that should be addressed.

You are talking about a 'war,' and I am talking about 'warriors.'

Those Japanese Kamikazes were warriors.

The terrorists are simply thugs fighting a war, and that is characterized by the murder of civilians.

Now you are certainly 100% correct that we are fighting a war for our lives, our families, and the values of Western Civilization, but to equate some ignorant raghead terrorist who delights in the murder of women and children with those Japanese members of their military is just plain wrong.

And if you should look back through my posts, you will see that I am certainly no admirer of the Japanese, or their conduct, in WW11 - Quite the contrary.
