The number of potential terrorists is infinite

Since 9/11, the foundational neoConservative myth has been that there are a finite number of terrorists, and that we can "win" the "global war on terrorism" simply by killing every last one of them. Bin Ladin and his ilk recognize that such a simple-minded and idiotic belief has the potential to bring down the entire western world. As Donald Rumsfeld himself admitted: "We are making enemies faster than we can kill them." And no wonder! What do we expect when we kill half-a-million Iraqis?! Moderate feelings towards us?!

The key to finally unravel support for the war, and for destruction of our liberty, is to expose the obviously false idea upon which the entire neoConservative argument depends:
that the number of terrorists is finite.
