And they are wrong.

Absolute passivity guarantees the complete absence of all three.

Wars are not solely fought to advance religions or forms of government, UM. Sometimes, they are fought only to resist countries that make war for their own interests, not to advance a different set of interests. As usual, no one is advocating surrender against any and all enemies. Some are merely advocating war that does not seek to advance any goal but the end of the war.

The war against terror should be waged against the George W. Bush and the many "men behind the curtain"
