How To Win The War On Terror: Don’t Be Afraid

win the war on terror bumper stickerRepublicans fret and bother and spend trillions of dollars to do what they call “winning the war on terror”, and still they haven’t won it. In fact, there’s no victory in sight. They talk about fighting the “war on terror” for generations to come. That’s not not really winning the war, is it?

Well, progressives have a simpler way of solving the problem, something akin to the action that Alexander the Great took when he undid the Gordian Knot by cutting it in two with his sword.

You want to win the war on terror? Okay. Don’t be afraid.

That’s all that’s required, and the war on terror will be over. It could happen tomorrow. It could happen on Election Day, 2008, if we make the right choice.
