Drawing a Line in the Sand

Bush drew a line in the sand and basically said to those attacking the free world, "Thus far and no farther". For this, the world is very grateful. However, a "War on Terror" is much like a "War on Drugs". Look at Mexico right now at where the war on drugs got them. They are close to financial and governmental collapse because of it.

Where does it all end? I think the human race will have to rethink about how it can long term reconcile freedom and terrorism, poverty and survival of the free world. The only long term solution that I can see is: education, birth control and every surviving human left having access to both food and shelter. Guaranteeing everyone a job on earth I just don't think will ever happen in actuality. However, guaranteeing food and shelter is doable and at some point will be the only real way to end terrorism. And if someone is still a terrorist then they should be denied food and shelter as a punishment.

The world is different in every way from the way it was in the 20th century. Unless enough of us realize it soon the free world may end.
