Great I decide to call a cat a dog so from now on all cats are dogs.
Terrorists are criminals plain and simple, just because your old president decide to invent a new definition so that he could go ahead and declare "war" on them doesn't mean that the new definition holds any weight.
You (the US) decided to transform Osama Bin Laden as a kind of evil lord mastermind, and his minions as a "real" army. Just for pure convinience nothing more nothing less. Reducing terrorists to "evil masterminds" forgetting about the political, economical realities of the phenomenon will mean the US will never understand and therefore deal correctly with such problems.
Has the US declared war on its internal dissidents ? You know the American Militia Movements (now isn't that a patriotic name ?

) that from time to time decide to bomb federal buildings for instance in oklahama city killing nearly 200 people.
Why don't we hear the american government declare war on "internal terrorists" ? Yep, two weights two mesures thats for sure. And in the end its terrorism, wether supported by american patriots or by foreigners. There is no good terrorism and bad terrorism. When the US will come to realise this it will be a great day. And maybe they'll stop declaring war on drugs too although I thnk thats also a lost cause. Have you been winning that war lately ?
