The president will give a speech tomorrow in which he will announce the end of the war on 'terrorism'. Its premise will be that the world situation has deteriorated so markedly and the threat from our enemies has increased so dramatically, it will no longer be enough to merely eliminate 'terrorism'. The United States will now declare war on 'fighting'.
"We must, and we will, fight until all fighting is done. Until the last fighting is removed from our world. We will continue the battle as long as any fighting remains, anywhere. It is our duty, it is our responsibility, to the children of our belief systems, and to the children of belief systems elsewhere. It is our mandate, to fight on, under God, and give no quarter. To fight fighting everywhere, on the land and in the sea, in foreign places and in home places. We must fight constantly, whatever the cost, whatever the burden, for this is the true enemy, this is our biggest threat. Fighting threatens us, and now we threaten it right back. We will meet it head on, with both guns blazing. Fighting is bad, very bad, and we are going to fight it with everything we have, until it is no more."

Milton, Areopagitica
Except he had found the
standing sea-rock that even this last
Temptation breaks on; quieter than death but lovelier; peace
that quiets the desire even of praising it.
