"We do not have to crush the enemy. But we do have to crush their will to fight, now or ever again. We have failed to do this and instead, it is unfortunately the American people who seem to be loosing their will to fight. He with the will to win will win. He won't accept any other outcome."

Excellent article. Although, I believe it's our media elite (or whatever you want to call them) who don't have the will to fight, and they have been working 24/7 to convince Americans to think as they do, and it is working. Add that to that the fact many media drones want Republicans out of power, and so must use the war as a batting ram again W. Bush and you have people who seem to be working for the enemy. The terrorists understand that very well. They understand our media and power structures well, and are using them for their war against us. A lot of those with power and influence are too arrogant to see it.

"At home, American citizens busy at work or play, preferring to believe that the enemy is no longer able to attack on American soil, seeking to treat the Mohammad Attas of the world as innocent until proven guilty under American criminal justice codes, make even easier targets. Western lawyers can not win the war against international terrorism. Western diplomats can not negotiate peace with people commanded by Allah to kill. Americans willing to wait until Iran has nuclear weapons before asking what they intend to do with them, or willing to assume that North Korea will act honorably with their nuclear technology until they don't, are an enemies dream.

Again, many of the people who have power & influence actually believe laywers and diplomats are the solution. And they have been trying to sell the public this illusion. It's no wonder Americans want to believe them and to accept these illusions because fighting terror costs us and is painful. Better to listen to the Chamberlains of the world...who will tell them what they wish was true.

Sure wish you were wrong! At some point, the ignorant American must claim responsibility for at least his ignorance though, no?
