Fighting a concept (Score 1)

First of all, the whole "War on Terror" concept is laughable, that's like saying lets have a War on Depresson; you can not fight an abstract idea. Furthermore, the people in charge of fighting this "war" are fighting like they are trying to defeat an enemy, if we are truly fighting a war on terror then wouldn't the logical thing to defeat be terror? As long as we remain afraid, the terrorists win, we can not defeat terror as long as we remain terrified of it. You remember the quote, "the only thing we have to fear is fear itself"? Yes it's cliche, but it could not be applicable to where we stand today.
