Re: GWB is wrong, as usual
True, but I think the point is that this was a misdeclared war... other 'wars on terror' have had discrete beginnings (like this one) and specified endpoints (unlike this one).
One of the first quotes, the one being argued against, is still relevant here - this is not a positive situation, a war that is 'unwinnable' (even if we can win battles) and is admittedly endless. If I were to be melodramatic I'd mention 1984 but it's overdone.
