I know FatSatan already addressed this, but I found this statement to be so insane that I couldn't let it go by without responding myself.
HOW can the "war on terror" EVER end?? It's a bullshit concept in the first place, and there is NO WAY IN HELL to ever bring something like that to an end.
We don't know who is a terrorist until they commit an act of terror. And since so many of them commit these acts of terrorism in suicidal missions, HOW can you retaliate against them? Okay, you can go after the group they're affiliated with, IF they were even affiliated with a terrorist group in the first place. But then how do you find the groups these terrorists are affiliated with? How do you root them out? And even when you do, how do you avoid creating more embittered psycopaths whose rage toward us drives them to commit acts of terrorism themselves?
You can't fight a "war" against an opponent you can't locate or even IDENTIFY. You can't accept a surrender, or sign a treaty, or agree to a cease fire with them.
