The very words give me pause in their ironic juxtposition, "war" and "terror" as if separate from each other.

The war is being won by the terrorists. Like a bee sting, the
terrorist event is not itself fatal to a society. In some people,
a bee sting can be fatal by the allergic reaction of the body.
The overresponse by the cellular defenses of the body kills the body.

The reaction of an eternal war on terrorism and the defecit, are all
signs that the overresponse is on schedule. The war has put the
cellular defenses of the body on overkill, by scaring the public
with duct tape irony, the fear spread by the terrorism alert process
is itself a sort of state terrorism.

In the end, the romans blew the treasury and the empire collapsed.
Bin laden is striking to completely collapse the USA, but his
attack can only work by that predictable response of an "eternal war
on terror" that bankrupts the people's goodwill on imperial
projects.
