"Struggle" translates to "jihad" in Arabic.
No mistaken choice of words.

It's a stern disagreement with non Christian people of a differing viewpoint.

Right!
We're having struggle rally and parade this weekend!
But seriously....................
could the reasoning be that "wars are won or lost" but struggles just continue until one side or the other becomes bored?

The President needs to see you in the Struggle Room, pronto!
To: paltz
Everyone expects a war to be able to be won, but a struggle is just a nuisance, like Al Gore was quoted as he referred to the WOT, then nobody will expect GWB to have to win the WOT, hence, he won't be held liable for our eventual defeat.
In order to win the peace we must kill all of the Muslims necessary to win the peace. It is really that simple.
To: arbusto99
Indeed!
The president enacted the struggle powers act!

I agree,
too bad what we're doing is spending $100 billion a year wiring iraq for cable tv and broadband.
Light-em up and bring all the Americans home.

Hey to win real wars [not police actions or enforcing 14 UN resolutions] we need a draft, war bonds, rationing and Rosie the Riveter. We aren't about to do those so it is better not to call it a war, isn't it?

I can't wait to see the Anti-Struggle protesters in the streets.
And when Al Jazeera translates it, the average rabid fire-breathing moslem will realize that the leftists are protesting against Jihad...
