What does ' WAR ON TERROR" means?
You see this everywhere, especially on the organized media. America has always been in War domestically and internationally. They use the word as it is a good thing and should be implanted in their brain washed follower's head. This way when they do go to War, it's no big deal they have been doing it for decades.
War on poverty, War on drugs, War on education, War on crime, War on homelessness, War on cancer, War on aids......., and now War on Terror?
What does it mean?
Terror means fear, an emotional response to a perceived danger. So War on Terror means combating fear?
Then why is it that US government intentionally implants this fear upon its own citizens? America is the ONLY country who uses Colors and announces danger levels, What for? To scare people, not the terrorists, their own people. Look up any country that has to deal with terrorists on daily basis like Israel or Pakistan or India, they don't announce it like this. Because they don't want to scare their people. Which then implies that the terrorist has won by creating the terror and scaring people and changing their lives. NO NO NO, in those countries they do the opposite so that terrorist does not win.
Doesn't take a genius to see what is being done and who is creating the terror. A terrorist in a cave with limited resources against a country with so many departments studying intelligence and unlimited resources.
WAR on TERROR? It is War on Terra.
