UK official queries ‘war on terror’

From the BCC (emphasis mine):

President George W Bush’s concept of a “war on terror” has given strength to terrorists by making them feel part of something bigger, [international development secretary] Hilary Benn has said.

“The fight for the kind of world that most people want can, in the end, only be won in a different battle – a battle of values and ideas.”

Personally, I prefer the term “Crusade against Islam”. ;)
