White House Suicide Mission

" 'You're either with us or you're against us.' One question has never been heard as openly: Is it possible to be neither with "us" nor with the terrorists? Even if the question hasn't been asked, a world of realities have answered it loudly and embarrassingly for the United States: It is possible to be on neither side of Bush's black-and-white divide. For most nations, and for a growing segment of the American public, it has become the Third Way of choice: Neither with the terrorists nor for Bush's vague and endless wars. Yet the Bush White House is hunkering down, admitting no mistakes, insulting dissenters and personalizing a mantra that has served the country, and the world, so poorly: 'You're either with us or against us.'
