A paradox of the society we live in, is that, in order for it to continue, the war on terror must be won by the terrorists (or some other group, or force, of destruction), to provide room for us to expand indefinitely.

The trick is to direct the destructive force away from ourselves, and toward others, to give us the lebensraum we need.
