War on terrorism is a joke

Make that a sick joke, worse than the war on drugs. The war on drugs was never meant to be won. It was to attack the poorest element in American society, and to support evil dictators and death squads in other countries. The drug kingpins jet-set around the world and nobody bothers them.
Maybe a war on terror isn't the smartest plan, but if we actually wanted one, we sure got off course real fast.
America has had a long history of accepting dictators and despots when it suits us. Even though the book, War Is A Racket by Maj. Gen. Smedley Butler, is about 70 years old, it is still a good read. If we wanted a real war on terror, the evil Saddam would made a much better ally than an enemy. There was not one Arab country who had a leader who hated the fundi Muslims more than he did.
The one time we should have stayed the course, Bush and the rest of the rats jumped ship.
