A "guerra ao terror" de Bush faz o jogo dos terroristas

Vale a pena ler o artigo «A Self-Defeating War», da autoria de George Soros (mais um americano anti-americano, «por supuesto»...) publicado no insuspeito «The Wall Street Journal», no passado dia 15 de Agosto.
Começa assim:
"The war on terror is a false metaphor that has led to counterproductive and self-defeating policies. Five years after 9/11, a misleading figure of speech applied literally has unleashed a real war fought on several fronts - Iraq, Gaza, Lebanon, Afghanistan, Somalia - a war that has killed thousands of innocent civilians and enraged millions around the world. Yet al Qaeda has not been subdued; a plot that could have claimed more victims than 9/11 has just been foiled by the vigilance of British intelligence".
