What we know so far...

We know that the war on terrorism is far from over and, in fact, might be the first 'endless war' in history. No matter because history itself is over. Osama bin Laden, whoever and wherever he might be, is no longer the pretext. In short, he's been fired. Onto Somalia, Iraq, Kashmir, and, if things heat up, to a nuclear exchange between India and Pakistan that will be 'containable'.
