Finally....someone who ins't afraid to say it!

Reader comment on item: The Triumph Of the 9/11 Commission

Submitted by Devra (United States), Jul 28, 2004 at 13:12

I truly believe that we can not win this war by simply removing Saddam or his army. We are not just fighting people...we are fighting hundreds or years of ideology!

In order to win the war on Islamist terrorism, we must take the time to educate and de-brainwash (for a lack of a better word) these people before any change can be implemented.

What good is killing and conquering if the mentality of the remaining people is the same as those who were removed?
