When you say "continue the war on terror", do you mean to invade more countries?

As and if necessary, yes. As stated in Bush's original speech declaring US intent, this should occur only if the state in question is supporting/assisting efforts at extra-national terrorism, but cannot be brought to cease and desist (e.g. Libya).

I chose the third option. We may have one of the most (if not THE most) advanced militaries in the world, but that doesnt mean we should snub (taking credit for) our allies from pitching in.

I definately think the war of terror should continue. This is 1850 anymore, isolationism is not the way to go. We also need to include our allies more effectively though. I mean, who likes to have no friends?

In that case, if the threat is real, then that's my vote.
