Resurgent Insurgents

5 years after the Taliban was toppled as the government of Afghanistan the war seems to have restarted. It is now becoming clear that the Taliban was never actually defeated. The Taliban is fighting hard in Afghanistan there have been scores of terrorist attacks since the ill advised declaration of a “War of Terror”. Iran has supplied weapons to Hezbollah in order to attack the main US ally in the region, Israel who incidentally could not dislodge Hezbollah from her northern border despite massive firepower and relentless bombing. Iraq is in flames and fighting a civil war in all but name. Thousands are dead around the world.

At every turn George Walker Bush has proved that he is not a strategic thinker. The reaction to 9/11 has proved almost as dangerous as the terrorists that caused it the only difference being that the terrorists were trying deliberately to cause devastation while the current US administration has just been inept to put it very mildly.

It is hard to see where all of this will end up. I certainly do not want to live in a Taliban style caliphate but I am not confident that the George Bush is going in the right direction to prevent this.

AMERICA IS CREATING MORE TERRORISTS THAN IT CAN EVER KILL OR CAPTURE!!
