Has America Won The War On Terror?

Straight Shooter · Sep 17, 2011

It's been ten years since we launched the War on Terror, how are we doing? Have we won?

,

and :drama: . That is all.

Bonezstorm · Sep 17, 2011

It started way more than 10 years

KillTheIndustry · Sep 17, 2011

Terrorism still exists, so... no.

The question is: is it possible to win the 'war on terror'? To me, the idea seems kind of like a war against war. Killing to stop killing. I know the intent is to stop the killers from killing innocent people, but I'm not convinced this is the best way to do that.

I don't have any better (realistic) ideas either though.

The US has won the contest for who is the biggest terrorist

Death-Proof-69 · Sep 17, 2011

you can win against a faceless enemy...the "enemy" we're fighting has no sovereign nation or absolute ruling body or even a homeland, therefore there is nothing that can be done to destroy it

Mayhem · Sep 17, 2011

Yes we have won. It was close and the shoe thing at the airport tipped the balance.

And you win for posting the biggest pile of cliche shit this week. Well done. :clap:

No. & its not just America fighting this so-called 'war'.

Thomas O'Malley · Sep 17, 2011

Absolutely not, and it will take over more then 50 more years to win that war. As a matter of fact, I don't even think it's a war that can be won.

I guess from an American point of view they have,with regards to getting
rid of Hussein,Bin Laden and Gadaafi.But they haven't got rid of the threat
of terror,as it can happen anywhere and at any time.

So I'm sitting on the fence with this one :dunno:

BigSwede · Sep 17, 2011

No.
There is still terror in the world.

GodsEmbryo · Sep 17, 2011

A war against terrorism is won if there would be no more terrorism. So the logical anwer is: no. As a matter of fact the seeds for new terror are sown

Dazza MXM · Sep 17, 2011

No, the threat still exists worldwide with many more countries than America fighting terrorism

L3ggy · Sep 17, 2011

One can't fight evil with evil.

PirateKing · Sep 17, 2011

No. Let's just leave it at that.

Mr. Daystar · Sep 17, 2011

No...and they NEVER will. Killing Bin Laden, meant nothing, fighting there, to keep them away from here, is the biggest load of bullshit EVER! We only have one chance, and it will never happen. We pull our soldiers out of ever other country we occupy, stop supporting EVERYONE, and ANYONE, with aide, and start mind our own fucking business.
