The war on terror is the use of terminology to cowardly avoid challenging political and religious ideologies that inspire and motivate terror. Beliefs, including religious beliefs, that inspire people to hate, to be violent, to be supremacists, must be challenged and repudiated.
At a time when the world should be mobilized to combat serious environmental threats, including but not limited to the massive decline in biodiversity, the poisoning of the planet with plastics, mercury, pesticides and numerous other poisons, the continued destruction of primary forests, mangroves and more, it is instead fighting religious battles that should have been left behind in the middle ages.
