You really think they will? Really? With a straight face you seriously think they will do that?

Hey smartguy, look at the last sentence in my post.

I'm not sure exactly what you hoped to prove by your point, but the fact of the matter is that it is not a war on Islam.The main targets may be Muslims, but that does not mean that all Muslims are the main target.
My origional point was that the 'war on terror' is an inaccurate, title becase its not a war on terror. Its a war on Al-queda, its a war on Islamic fundamentalism (ironic as hell) or fundamentalist terrorism but NOT ALL TERRORISM. That is all. Even saying Islamic terroism is not accurate, i don't see those pakastani-backed terrorists being rounded up by US forces, despite them being in the same country. Its an iccurate title, its a misleading title, its a title that can be manipulated ot include anyone the administration does not like and thereby almost garantee public support for the latest jihad against whoever became a terrorist today, crackers, crumbling soviet states etc. I don't like that.
