True

Charlie Reese:

The war on terrorism is phony. True, bin Laden's boys were able to hit us pretty hard, thanks to luck and our own government's incompetence. But that was one organization and one hit. President Bush, after he got his instructions from the Establishment, declared war on every underground organization in the world, 95 percent of which were not even thinking of us, much less thinking about attacking us. Colombian rebels are against the Colombian government; Irish Republicans oppose British control of Northern Ireland; Palestinian groups are fighting Israeli occupation; and so on and so on. People employing guerrilla-war tactics to seek independence, an end to occupation, the overthrow of a dictator or to attain some degree of autonomy are not our enemies. Bin Laden is our enemy, and we should have concentrated on him.
