Kimball on the "War on Terror"
"I applaud the president's stalwart war on terrorism. That, I believe, is a difficult but winnable conflict. The idea that America's freedom and security depend upon the replacement of tyranny with liberty the world over strikes me as a campaign against evil itself. That conflict, alas, is likely to be less easily won."[3]
