Americans don’t really want to win the “war on terror”

NY Times editorials are almost never funny,…. NY Times editorials are almost never funny, but today’s editorial about the politics of terror in the US shows how our Vice-president was already playing politics with this latest round of news even before we knew about it, but when he certainly knew it was coming. Also note yesterday’s news was completely managed by the US and British governments. How much faith do you have in their honesty? Why? [Scripting News]

I particularly like this part:

There is nothing Americans want more than to win the war on terror, to come to a place where people no longer feel it is a fine thing to forfeit their own lives and the lives of innocents in order to make the world notice their anger and frustration.

Sadly, Americans don’t want it enough to stop forfeiting their own lives and the lives of innocents in order to make the world notice their anger and frustration.
