I believe in the "force" of DU. I think we need to start to reframe the Repuke |

"war on terror". We all know it's not a war on terror. So, lets stop using the wrong phrase for what is going on. There are some unbelievable minds here so I'm sure we can come up with something. "War for business" "War for oil" "War for Bush"

1. The whole concept of a "war on terror" is idiotic. |
|
You can't declare war on a tactic.
It's just nonsense.

Of course Americans think one must have a war to get anything done. Hence the war on poverty, drugs, cancer or whatever.
It seems to me that "terrorism" has become somewhat of a nebulous concept. One definition might be belligerent tactics that are unlawful under the Geneva Convention.

6. I'd say the "Bush War" |
|
(as that's already a phrase it might be slightly catchier..?) :shrug:
(also kind of carries on from the "Bush Doctrine").

What power does DU have?
We are mostly wanking off in the dark.
All we have is the ability to raise a little money, money rich people would laugh at.
