I just have to quickly point out a glaring flaw, because explaining to you the specifics of why your policy is dangerous is getting a bit tedious:

The statement has been made that this is a war that cannot be won. Well -if you can't ever win a war, your doomed to either go down fighting it anyway, or being forced to surrender. Because in war there is always a winner and a loser. The comment that we cannot win it- means we are forced in some way to lose it. That is a position I cannot ever agree with. I love my country too much to throw up my hands and give her up like that. That attitude is the definition of defeatism.

What you CLEARLY don't understand is the concept of the War on Terror. That fact that you cannot grasp that there are no battle lines and no specific parameters for victory makes you wholly unfit to lead.
The War on Terror is going to have to be fought continously and diligently - and just because that's something we must do, doesn't mean that we will somehow lose the war as you imply.
Dude, this IS NOT WORLD WAR II.
Oh, and in wars, there are NOT always winners and losers, as you've said. Many wars throughout history have been fought to statemates.
But, again, the War on Terror is not a "war" in the traditional sense. The fact that you don't get that is disconcerting.
