You're mistaken if you think Iraq is either not part of the War on Terror or the War on Terror. It's a part. It's today's main front. That will change five years from now. It may be Sudan. It may be Iran. It may be Syria. It may be Egypt. It may be North Korea. It may be Pakistan.
We may suffer another 9/11 tomorrow. We may not. Regardless if we do or not, it shouldn't lessen our resolve to defeat the ideology of radicalism by means of democracy.
First of all, the war on terrorism will never end. There will always be hatred and therefore always conflict. To say we must defeat terrorism means to defeat hatred, an emotion, and being a part of the human race you should know you can't get rid of an emotion. They are simply fighting for what they think is right, like in the American Revolution, the colonists fought using guerrilla warfare, a cheap tactic to England, but one that worked. The suicide bombings are their guerrilla warfare. They will do anything to win, and to say that we have to eliminate their determination is impossible. The best we can do is keep peace, and try not to start an islamic crusade against the west!
