Is war on terror fought under right tittle?

Question

usa is loosing war on terror.Is it true that it is due to usa has made war on terror her war where as she should have made it a globel issue

Answer 1

Losing the war or Terrorism?  I think not.  There hasn't been a successful attack on US soil in almost 7 years.  I say that's pretty damned good compared to other nations.  And yes, we tried to make it a global issue.  All the UN has done is twiddle their thumbs like they always do.

Answer 2

How is the USA losing the War on Terror? We've secured Iraq, overthrown the Taliban in Afghanistan, denied Al-Qaeda a sanctuary in Afghanistan and Iraq. Al-Qaeda has moved to Pakistan because they know we can't touch them there. Pakistan needs to step it up, or we should do it ourselves.

Answer 3

Sure.

Why not?

For blindly stepping on a hornet nest.

That became a global issue on "Counter-terrorism"

Luke 6.39-40,41-45,46-49

What do you think?

Answer 4

How are we losing the war on terror?  If you haven't noticed, other countries countinue to have terrorist attacks, yet we have yet to suffer another attack since September 11th.  

The United States tried to make it a global issue, as it should have been.  But too many countries were afraid, or their people not willing, to help out.  Since it was the United States that was attacked so viciously, and since it's the United States with the strongest military, it is therefore the United States that fights to protect itself.

Answer 5

Ye they started it because of two things. One the war on terror and second for the oil. They sai you can see a line inAfgenistan exectly where the oil pipes are funny huh. But ye they will lose it because they are so into oil with there heads. Now they wanna start drilling in Alaska what is this. They know that there will be no more oil soon and now they want to get the last things. That even cost more and it will be gne. I would sai stop drilling and go on green energy and they will run the worldeconomy again. But you who am i to sai that.

Answer 7

A "War on Terror" is oxymoronic at best, terror is a feeling, and how can you wage war on a feeling?  Even if you refer to a War on Terrorism, terrorism is a tactic, and you can't make war on a tactic either.  You can only make war on people, and what we are doing is not a war, it's law enforcement carried out by the military, which is not for what they are trained or equipped.

Answer 8

The war on terror is a global issue nd has ben for a long time. The U.S. was just the first to launch an attack and fight back instead of cowering in a corner and looking for someone else to take of her problems ----> Kind of like Europe tends to do.

Since the terrorists do not discrimintae on who they attack, whether it be the innocent or guilty or even their own people.

Secondly isnt the world always bitching and moaning whenever the U.S. steps up to the plate and takes a stand.

We are not I repeat NOT losing the war on terror.

That is the liberal media and their attempt to down anything that is remotely patriotic and will help restore faith in our leaders.

Ask the soldiers, who have been there.

They will tell you the truth.

It is successfull, just dont expect to hear that on the tv.

By the way I'm assuming your not from America, I may be wrong of course, but where are you from?

Answer 9

"title", "losing", and "global"

I think the whole concept of a war on terror is silly.  It's a concept - it would be like a war on theft, or a war on racism.  There are actions you can take to improve the situation, but it's not something to be won or lost.  There will never be a point when we can declare victory, because as long as there are people that don't like other groups of people, the potential for violence exists.
