Nicholas Schmidle-- Drop the Language of 'the War on Terror'

Language matters. We've done a disservice to the Muslim world and the intelligence of all Americans by oversimplifying all of these conflicts -- Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan and others -- under the guise of one war. These conflicts are largely movements that are using Islam as a political tool to advance their political agendas, and confronting them requires a disaggregated approach that considers that sees them for the distinct conflicts that they are.

And thats the power of language... the same language that creates hatred and exploits the purity of Islam can spread peace and create an environment for tolerance and mutual respect!
