Of course not. Kamikazism was not the enemy. The enemy was the armies of Imperial Japan.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://newsbloggers.aol.com/2007/04/17/the-british-are-right-its-not-a-war-on-terror/"><P>Similarly now terrorism is simply one of the main strategies employed by our foes to achieve their nefarious goals.

But it's a strange sort of enemy we're fighting, and it's important for us to understand what we're up against. Bush's rhetoric could use some intellectual and moral clarity, not only in its terminology, but also in explaining what's at stake to the American people.
