Gee, I hate to make a lot of enemies, but these replies are nonsense, and the post is accurate. That our military objectives have been determined by an effort to build a coalition government first has been admitted by virtually every official who has stood behind the podium since the war on terrorism began. Only since General Haq was caught and executed (destroying any plan for a threat from the south)did our strategy begin to change and meagre carpet bombing of the Taliban front lines began in support of the Northern Alliance front in the north of Kabul and Mazar-e-Sharif.

Just a few days ago, we had Freepers writing that you can't carpet bomb in Afghanistan because of the caves, etc. so those of us calling for it should shut up. Well, now we are carpet bombing. But, instead of a steady flow of planes and bombs that could win the war in a matter of days, we are sending one B-52 a day in a seeming effort in delay the war long enough to enrage as many fundamentalist Muslims as we can. Does anyone really doubt that we have the power to put a bomb crater every thirty feet throughout the entire Taliban front line guarding Kabul, simultaneously removing every mine and Taliban soldier that stands in the way of the weak-kneed Northern Alliance?

On the homefront, we wait to be attacked, rather than making an all out effort to round up every illegal and non-citizen alien of middle eastern citizenship for deportation and thereby eliminating the threat of further terrorist attacks. Such an effort would at least force them to go to the mattresses, making them act more suspiciously and thereby become more noticeable by the authorities and the general public. In short, if it's not a war, don't call it a war. If it is a war, then act like it, and go all out to win it. That means, defeat the enemy with all possible speed, and protect the homeland with all necessary means consistent with the constitutional rights of United States citizens. So far, only the citizens have lost any rights. The bad guys haven't lost anything. They are laughing at our bombing campaign, and rolling on the floor in hilarity at our immigration policies.
