I'm glad to see political content in blogs that state a different opinion on what's been normally presented and hailed supreme from George W. supporters. Even though I don't believe in Ron L. Hubbard's Scientology, I'm not so ignorant to dismiss every thing a writer would say from the Christian Science Monitor.

Whose God? Short-term, the God with the heaviest artillery and the most foolish leaders, the most flighty, shallow-valued, arrogant population. Long-Term? The God with the longest memories and the most smouldering, seething anger. The short-term God's gift is in the victory parade. The long-term God's gifts show themselves in funeral marches for a long time to come. The poor old Jews are still paying for killing Jesus. I doubt Islamic memories... [ More ]

That's a declaration of war from their nation of Radical-Islam .... as Islam itself shows absolutely no distinction between religion and state. They are as one.

The trouble with the whole question is in the ambiguity imbedded in what 'war' is and what 'terrorism' is. If terrorism is war, any response has to be covered by all the international rules and laws we've agreed to in the past, along with the requirements in the US Constitution. An enemy has to be specifically identified. Congress has to define who the enemy is, what that enemy has done to cause the US to go to war. Congress has to define what that specific enemy has to...
