The War on Terror

GWOT is as American as apple pie and the KKK

Notice how the thread title is "the War on Terror", not "the Global War on Terror". Hell, we've got 2010-era Raoul saying it doesn't even exist. I think this is pretty definitive proof that GWOT isn't a real word, and it can't hurt you. Unlike the war on terror, which killed millions.

Well, I mean even the US Army have said not to use it in official statements or documents anymore....

It is funny how it's caused such a fuss though :lol:
 
i think this thread would have more than 120-odd replies in a decade if it was called “gwot” that way everyone on here would know what it was about.
 
Great, I thought that we were on GWOT but I only see acronym experts and pies, could we move it to another thread please?
 
Anyway, it's interesting that technically the "War on Terror" isn't over yet and there's still no pending deadline for the ceasing of operations pertaining to it.
 
This thread was a hell of a bump and needs renaming GWOT.

And will never be over if the idea is sending the military like attacking dogs to kill, destroy and exacerbate people that end in europe as refugees and ends commting terrorist attacks. If that is the idea, it seems like another great idea like "war on drugs". Everything that has "war" in it always ends well, innit?
 
GWOT had a very rushed ending IMO. They needed more seasons to stick the landing. But DoD bailed because they wanted to do Star Wars, shameful.
 
I'm more interested in the apple pie debate, especially with apple pie (and cherry) being British and Irish in origin.
