This just occurred to me: Yes call me slow if you want...
Isn't Bush's target a self-renewing source?
Every extremist he kills becomes a Martyr for the cause. Martyrs encourage extremists. More extremists equals more terrorists equals more targets for Bush.
Only the new, Martyr-inspired terrorists won't need AlQaida's religion-based reasons in order to hate the west. Bush is handing them perfectly reasonable, specific reasons on a plate.
For this reason alone, I can see the War on Terror spiralling out of control and killing the lot of us.
Anyway, happy happy.
