The USA PATRIOT Act, enacted in October 2001, is aimed at fighting terrorism in the United States. It enhances law enforcement's ability to surveil, investigate, and prevent terrorist activities by expanding tools for surveillance, information sharing, and detaining suspected terrorists. The Act has been both praised for improving national security and criticized for its implications on civil liberties and privacy rights.
No the US does not negotiate with terrorists.
When Afghanistan jet fighters are fighting US jet fighters. When Afghanistan tanks are fighting US tanks. When Afghanistan warships are fighting US warships. When Afghanistan soldiers are fighting US soldiers. Then it will be like Vietnam. Right now, it just a law enforcement issue; finding terrorists, arresting them, or terminating them.
1. A war is fighting another nation (THEIR AIR FORCE, NAVY, & ARMY). Was the US fighting against a nation in Vietnam? Yes, the country called North Vietnam. 2. Was the US fighting a nation in WWII? Yes , the US was fighting Germany & Japan (yes and Italy, but they surrendered so quickly, historians often leave them out of the debate). 3. Was the US fighting a nation in the war of 1812? Yes, the nation called Great Britain. A Police Action or Law Enforcement Action is fighting against terrorists (Criminals or Insurgents) who have no nation (if they did the US would attack that nation, destroying terrorists would be EASIER THEN!). The United States is NOT fighting against the nations of Iraq nor Afghanistan. Therefore the United States of America is NOT at war with those nations. Those are police actions...the restoring of law, order, and stability to those regions...or at least in Afghanistan, the capturing or killing of terrorists.
they are fighting in this war because they are trying to get rid of the Taliban.
Capulets vs Montagues
The reasons terrorists target the United States are at this time only speculation.
THERE ARE CELLS OF TERRORISTS OPERATING IN THE US.
there are no British Soldiers stationed in the US because that is an act of war and the US is obviously not fighting Great Britain.
Terrorists are enemies of the U.S.
"The great Satan"
We're NOT at war with Iraq. The free world (at least that part which is truly free) is fighting Muslim fundamentalist extremist terrorists. Mohammed wanted the entire world Islamic and stated it would be done either by the carrot or the sword. They attacked us. We did NOT bring this upon us. We are fighting IN Iraq because it is easier to get a lot of terrorists there than in say, South America! We'll feed them all pork rinds insha'allah. (insha'allah means in god's will)
US is at war with no nation; only terrorists.
