Very true. In an earlier thread, Kerry has demanded a 20,000 man troop pull out of Iraq by Christmas. He thus demonstrates that he learned the real lesson of Vietnam, namely how to lose a war in the most humiliating manner and with the greatest long term repercussions.
I would envision the initial stages of the loss of this war to be as follows:
First, turn increasingly large portions of the war over to the Iraqi without answering the challenge presented by the subversion of the Police and Military by terrorist sympathizers.
Second begin withdrawing US troops according to a timetable and without any connection to the situation on the ground.
Negotiate through the UN with the "new' fundamentalist Iraqi government.Watch with "concern" while the fall of Iraq is followed by the fall of Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Pakistan, and Afghanistan.
Use the North Korean model for our negotiations with each of these "new" states.
Reelect Hillery to a second term.
Very true
Actually, he lays blame exactly where it ought to be. At the end of the article, he talks about the enemy as Islam.
In the meat of the article he explains that the moderate adherents either toe the line or die (i.e. moderate Islam is the bastion of useful idiocy regarding venomous Islam). They might be nice but the cannot help us or themselves.
Islam is ruled by the hardliners...they want us (non-muslims) converted, subjugated or dead.
This article nails the point very cleverly. Too bad our President would rather hold hands with Abdullah than dissect this deadly issue.
Check one...converted, subjugated or dead.
Those are the options. (Freep this poll?)
