Seriously man...where have you been? were you in a cave while away from HST? What war on terror? It's a soundbyte...something to make it sound like we're doing a good job at something rather than failing miserably at everything. Our actions and support of nations not much better than those we claim to be against (like our support for Israel which is absolutely shameful) if nothing else is solidifying future terrorists into a deep and brooding hatred for us. They don't "hate our freedom", as our dicta...err...president so charmingly put it. If they wanted freedom they could just move here. In reality they hate our ignorance, they hate the fact that we invade their countries and exploit them for our own use, and they hate our self righteous policies. The key is to try and understand these people. If force is necessary, so be it...but we aren't even trying anymore. Bush's war on terror is little less than a showcase of the weapons we've got ready for potential buyers (who will probably end up using them against us in the future).
