We are at war with terrorism. Bottom Line. This is not a one week war, a one month or even one year war. This is an eternal war with no limits or boundaries. This is a war for international freedom, not national freedom. Upon instances of U.S. retaliation, yes, we will see even more extremists come from nowhere. That is a good thing. We want to see them, as now they're invisible. When US intelligence gets upgraded to cold war capability again, no doubt, we will have more eyes to counter those added terrorists. If we are going to bring our civilization and our generations of children forward, we have no choice but to make this commitment. I ask you, do you have children or do you know anyone with children? If so, take a good look at them right now. Remember them as they are because without our help, they will live in a different society of strict law and limits on freedom as we know it yesterday. I ask you, are you in or out?
