GEORGE WILL IS SHRILL. George Will does the unthinkable and not only attacks George W. Bush‘s approach to national security, but even offers praise for John Kerry, arguing that Kerry was right to say “that although the war on terror will be ‘occasionally military,’ it is ‘primarily an intelligence and law enforcement operation that requires cooperation around the world'” while his critics are engaged in a “farrago of caricature and non sequitur mak[ing] the administration seem eager to repel all but the delusional.”
