exactly.
Bush is fighting terrorism with armies and guns, the american way if you will, which simply just doesn't work.
it's all very well blowing up people who support them, but the terrorists can just pootle off somewhere else and build more bombs.
america has managed to alienate most of the middle east and a bunch of other states with their recent war, and has fostered a lot of resentment.
you simply can't send in troops and hope for the best, you need to make friends with the people, show them your their friend, or at least not their enemy, not blow them up and try and scare them into not attacking you.
The UN is there for a reason, granted it may not be too good at it's job in some places, but if another country went behind it's back, i can probably say the US would be the first one to throw a tantrum.
