'war on terror' what an oxymoron war is terror, wether Osama is now alive or dead is not the issue anymore, maybe in America they are still using him as a centrepiece for the continued occupation of iraq, but here in the UK it has moved on, we are now dealing with extremist muslims using Al Qaeda as a justification to spread thier anti 'western culture' message. The USA's heavy handed approach to world politics does not help the case for western culture but I haven't heard anything about Osama for a while and if he did turn up dead I don not think it would change much.
One countries terrorist is another countries freedom fighter, to call it a war on terror is to give the opposition a purpose it needs to stop now and genuine bridges between our cultures need to be made. I do beleive that dubya is up to no good behind all this, of course it is all just intuition because I have no proof. when future generations judge him I reckon he will be considered a bad patch in American history.
