And - war against terrorism? That's as if one is saying: "war against tanks". "War against air planes." But these are just the tools of war you fight with. WWII was fought against fascism. |
No, it wasn't. It was fought against Germany, Japan, and Italy, and therefore it was a war with those three countries. And it ended when the Heads of State of each of these three countries, one by one, surrendered and signed peace treaties after their armies were defeated on the battlefield.
[Edit] Do these facts give you an inkling of why the "war" on terror can neither be fought nor won with the same tactics and mentality? Declaring war on terror is like screwing for virginity (to steal from something someone else once said).
