Bush's latest claim

It seems now John Kerry's recent interview with the New York times is now Bush's latest fodder in a pre-election push to win votes. Kerry's out of context quote on likening terrorism with prostitution and other more "minor" crimes, when in it's lower form, is Bush's latest broken record theme. If Kerry's smart he'll bring up George Bush's admition of almost a month ago where he said we could never win against terrorism, it's a tactic, which was quickly spun by Scott McClellan and retracted by Bush a day later. I think Kerry is right, it should be reduced to what it was pre-9/11. It's not terrorism, it's the international forces that use it to thwart globalist giants like the US and mulit-national corporations, largely represented by the US. The fact remains that before the first Gulf war, this really wasn't an issue. Placing US troops in the middle East, supporting and creating CIA trained cadres in Afganistan to fight the Soviets, sustained military supply lines to Israel, all hinging on foriegn dependence on oil has landed us here. Now with a crusade going on in Iraq there is now a true reason for terrorism to flourish. To deal with terrorists you remove the motivation, not create new ones, it's just that simple. If you create new motivations then there must be a harsher response to the threat, a true 0 tolerance level. If you want to keep current economic and social condtions the same, those which embolden the terrorists, then you must fully escalate the offensive.
