Gordon Brown, the new prime minister of the United Kingdom, has instructed his administration to drop the phrase: War on Terror. I consider that a brilliant move and would do the same thing here in America. He’s also instructed his administration not to use the term: Muslim terrorist. That seem like stupid political correctness to me. I can understand deemphasizing the religious component as an electoral strategy, and even as a way to avoid further alienation. But a ban? That seems too much.
Regardless, there was never any way we could win a War on Terror. I’m glad the UK has stopped pretending otherwise.
