How can we possibly know when we have won the war on terrorism?
By what criteria will it be judged?
Will standards relax after the declaration of the "victory"?
Will restrictive legislation (that is sure to be passed) be recalled?
I'm afraid (as I have said earlier) that this "war" will end up being the twin sister to the WOsD (War on some Drugs).
I'm also afraid that the banking industry in it's "effort" to do its part will re-introduce it's "know-your-customer" regulations. After-all we must know where all the money is going, the spending and deposit habits of the people must be tracked and tabulated, and cash must be made more inconvenient than "the card".
My confidence in this "war" is waning, but was never strong to begin with.
The enemy is invisible, its goals are not necessarily conquest, but destruction of confidence and morale, and the promotion of fear.
It hides among us and wears our face. It is based upon deep religious beliefs and undying loyalty.
Please, convince what I have said is wrong.
