When did the "war on terrorism" become the "struggle against extremism?" Did I miss the memo?
What has brought about this change in the semantics? I have come to the conclusion that it's probably a broadening of the term from just a simple "terrorist." Also, now, the people will start to associate multipleforms of "extremism" as "terrorism..." so maybe that will give them what they need to want to go up against some other countries now, too... So who's next? China? South Korea? The American Democratic Party?
