'War on terror' a failure
'The International Institute for Strategic Studies, a respected British think tank with no discernible anti-Bush animus, declared that Al Qaeda is "more insidious and just as dangerous" as it was before Sept. 11.'

Politicians such as Bush, Blair and Howard are not serious about preventing terror. If they were serious they would not have attacked Iraq and most importantly would put emphasis on the need to 'drain the swamp': this is the leitmotif of any genuine effort to combat terror. Instead they are using the terror scare to advance their real political agendas, re-election, military-industrial-corporate advancement, neo-colonialism, neo-liberalism etc.
