I don’t know what you people are talking about. It’s perfectly obvious that this group is completely objective, and not at all motivated by leftist ideology. Furthermore, they have reached this conclusion by close adherence to scientific method. Can’t you see that?

Hey Rogers why don’t you give al Qaeda a big hug and kiss? I’m sure that will stop them in their tracks.

My think tank, (four hockey dudes and a case of Molson Ice) believe that the only way to handle the terrorists is to sit down with them, sing kumbayah, have some group hugs then shoot them.

Of course they do. The only question now: are they Chamberlains or Lord Ha-Has?

The only thing “fueling” the enemy is all the aid and comfort they are receiving from within our own borders.

George Bush is adding fuel to the fire by supporting amnesty for illegal aliens. Any number of which can be terrorists posing as illegals.

These donkeycraps want diplomacy with Al Queda? Good luck, but they’re wasting their time: 9/11 was Al Queda’s way of carrying out diplomacy.

I agree that the WOT is not being carried out as well as it could be but not for the same reasons as the twits in this article.

Getting rid of the name “War on Terror” would be a start.

“The only thing “fueling” the enemy is all the aid and comfort they are receiving from within our own borders.”

I believe the US now understands that the fueling of terrorism started years before when the terrorists received no forceful reprisals for their attacks on the US and other Western countries. Those in charge now know that the only way to defeat the enemy is with devastating force. That is what radical Islam respects and that is what will defeat them.

The Chamberlain approach failed in the 30’s, and has failed in the modern era.

Where have those Oxford types been living???

He described the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq as a "disastrous mistake" which had helped establish a "most valued jihadist combat training zone" for al Qaeda supporters.

They train 'em, our guys kill 'em. I fail to see how this helps Al Qaeda.

Report says war on terror is fuelling al Qaeda

The conclusion, "war on terror is fueling al Qaeda", was no doubt something that the author(s) of the study, needed to explain with a farcical report. Which came first: the chicken or the egg? In other words, a study or report was needed to fulfill a conclusion or opinion which the authors needed to justify.

"fundamental re-think [sic] is required"

You guys are pretty smart. Only took you six years after 9/11 to render your nonsense. Only six years after the adults started cleaning up your mess.

Shh.. quiet. You don't get to talk.

We are systematically cutting them off in Iraq.

So let the Russians and the Chinese in on taking out the Iranians while we take out Syria...
