Reader comment on item: [The Hamas Victory and] Prospects for Peace
Submitted by Douglas Boggs (United States), Jan 30, 2006 at 23:44
The president can keep fooling himself all the likes, but we are not at war with terrorism, or as one wag said this week, with dandruff. We are at war with Islamism. No democratic solution can work until there is a separation of mosque and state. Any other solution is unworkable. It is also UNENLIGHTENED--a carefully-chosen word.Douglas Boggs
