The Osama Litmus Test

Three cheers for Brooks and Bush! Kerry's previous statements that he would be satisfied if terrorism were reduced to a 'nuisance' signal that he just doesn't understand the threat in his gut, as Brooks indicates. Because Kerry is cerebral on this issue, he would likely opt for decisions that leaned toward appeasement, IMHO. Eradication of Bin laden and his kind is the only alternative at this juncture and Kerry states that he agrees with this. That's good. Programs and initiatives that might persuade the Muslim world that their hatred of America is ill-founded might help long-term, but war is the only alternative for now.
