Hello,

I wonder how many 'major blows' we must deal to al Qaeda before we can bring the war to an end?

This will remain a problem for some time. Eventually they will either become irrelevant and face away, moderate and get assimilated, or commit an act so horrible we wipe out their state sponsors and safe havens.

Hero...must be right on all of this. ALL of the rest of us are wrong. Chrisisall, 2012

"We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false." -- William Casey, Reagan's presidential campaign manager & CIA Director (from first staff meeting in 1981)

How many trillions of dollars down the drain before that happens?

Invade nuclear Pakistan?

It's not personal. It's just war.

One.
Stop quietly arming and supporting them in order to create/preserve the external threat all tyrannies need to prosper.

EverWar ForEverMore...

"...it does not matter if the war is not real, or when it is, that victory is not possible. The war is not meant to be won. It is meant to be continuous. The essential act of modern warfare is the destruction of the produce of human labor. A hierarchical society is only possible on the basis of poverty and ignorance. In principle, the war effort is always planned to keep society on the brink of starvation. The war is waged by the ruling group against its own subjects. And its object is not victory over Eurasia or Eastasia, but to keep the very structure of society intact."

- 1984, by George Orwell

If a war can be begun on a lie, it can as easily be ended on one. But this one won't end any time soon, and the lies are piling up higher than the bodies on all sides.
