Does anyone feel like I do that the war on terror is similar to the war on drugs? It seems both are ideas that have no direct line of attack or something we will ever see the end of!

Yes, this is similar. There has never been a war on drugs or a real war on terror. The CIA has brought drugs into America and elements of the U.S carried out 9/11. There is an overwhelming amount of evidence to support both of these claims. I really hope ppl will start doing the research because it is all out there.

You are right, the war on terror will not be wrapped up in a neat little package for you within a few months.
The goal of terrorism is not to win militarily, it is to take small shots at the enemy until their morale is weakened. They rely on the weak willed amongst us to give up.
Your ideas have played right into their hands. If you did not smoke that stuff you would realize this.

In a way I do. Both are wars fought different than any other war Both have ruthless enemies that will use the death of innocents to win. Both are fought to try to save thousands from vicious enemies. Both get little support from Americans that they are fought to protect.
And sadly there will always be drug dealers & terrorists but we can not give up & allow them control.

the war on drugs has been going on for 40+ years and there is no end in sight, just like the war on terror

It's an analogy closer to the truth than war on terror vs world war II.

You have a point on their similarities. I think both wars are not wars to be won, rather than wars to thwart their progress. Neither drugs nor terrorism will ever disappear but we must be vigilant and fight both whenever they seem to gain momentum.

What we need to do is declare wars on the ivory billed woodpecker, the snow leopard and the rain forest.
Then all will flourish.

I agree with you.
They are both designed to restrict our freedoms, and get us more used to being told what to do, how to do it and when to do it, in preparation for martial law and slavery in line with the agenda of the New World Order. which decides all of Bushes moves.
