the war didn't matter. He told me that there was only one solution because we were dealing with extremists with whom you couldn't deal. He said that they must be killed. That we should have started in the Carter years in Iran.

In short, he said that these terrorists attacked us. And that we were going to have to kill them and it was going to take a while.

Now, my question for Duer's is this: Who exactly are these terrorists? And what are they about? Are they religious fanatics who want to take over the world? Or do they just want us out of their world?

For all the talk about the war on terror, the Administration has been amazingly vague about who the enemy actually is.

Is this a war on Islamic Fundamentalism?

If so, looks like we are really back to the crusades and the middle ages.
