The Time blogger previously known as Anonymous writes
that Obama is already winning the War on Terror:
The Zawahiri letter is one of the first real indications we
have of the new international state of affairs (the Ahmadinejad
letter of congratulations may also have been a good sign, but
was leavened by the author's lack of real power and the fact
that he's running for reelection). The terrorists are now
exposed as racists, on top of everything else. We have many
miles to go in Afghanistan and the northern and western
precincts of Pakistan, and more blood to shed--and innumerable
ways to screw up, since no one has ever gotten Afghanistan
right--but the wind seems to have shifted slightly and is now
at our back.
Translation: Terrorists have killed innocent civilians by the
thousands, decapitated living human beings, and used woman and
children as suicide bombers, but two wars and seven years of
struggle by troops from America and around the world have not
stopped them. Yet now that Obama has exposed them as racists,
victory is within sight!
