Terror is NOT an Enemy.
Terror is the TACTIC of an
Enemy!
The
scandal over the failure of the Bush Administration to find the Weapons of Mass
Destruction (WMD) in Iraq is growing fatter and deeper every day.
In this war, men have been sent on a
fool’s errand. They have been placed in harms way on false pretenses and
faulty intelligence.
This eventuality might have been avoided had the President and the Congress
followed the United States Constitution
which provides that only Congress can declare war. The President cannot usurp this power from Congress and the Congress
cannot surrender it by resolution.
The Constitutional process would also
insure that the United States would not commit troops to something so vague, so
undefined and so un-winnable as a war on terror.
Terror is not an enemy. Terror is the
tactic of an enemy. A war on a tactic will, in all likelihood, never end because
the object of the war, the tactic, can never be eradicated. This type of war
will always be an endless, confusing tragedy.
That is what we have in the case of Iraq.
“Nation building” is not a
permissible function of the United States Government under Article I, Section 8
of the United States Constitution.
Our president did not follow the Supreme Law of the Land, the United States
Constitution.
