The remarks were made by Brig. Gen. Mark O. Schissler, an Air Force commander and the Defense Department's deputy director for the "war on terrorism." He made them in an exclusive interview with the Washington Times, the right-wing daily owned by the Unification Church of Rev. Sun Myung Moon. "We're in a generational war," he told the paper. "You can try and fight the enemy where they are and where they're attacking you, or prevent them and defend your own homeland," he said. "But that's not enough to stop it." The Washington Times went on to report, "Gen. Schissler said he is concerned that Washington politics is weakening the will of the nation."
if it's anything which has weakened the "will" of the nation, it's Bush's f*ck up in Iraq. Thus the report by those fabulous Baker Boys, etc. -- Jim Devine / "In all recorded history there has not been one economist who has had to worry about where the next meal would come from." -- Peter Drucker.
