The war on terror was always an unwinable war.
I am not sure why the Clintonites are coming up with this nonsense.
Even if the US invaded every country on earth, (they have troops in 120 already) they could never overcome terrorism , which is about rage in peoples' hearts.
The language of "war" is simply absurd and inappropriate.
But it has been an excuse for wars of aggression, torture and violation of human rights which can only generate more terrorists in the world.
The only victory over terrorists is a victory for peace negotiation and sweet reason.
Bushco offers anything but those things.

Experts Say US is Losing War on Terror

WASHINGTON - U.S. terrorism experts Daniel Benjamin and Steven Simon have reached a stark conclusion about the war on terrorism: the United States is losing.
(Bush) has given them an excellent American target in Iraq but in the process has energized the jihad and given militants the kind of urban warfare experience that will raise the future threat to the United States exponentially.

Despite an early victory over the Taliban and al Qaeda in Afghanistan, the two former Clinton administration officials say President George W. Bush's policies have created a new haven for terrorism in Iraq that escalates the potential for Islamic violence against Europe and the United States.">Experts Say US is Losing War on Terror:
