Oh yeah... I keep forgetting about those Iraqi hijackers.
I never said anything about crusading against Iraqi's. Really really poor liberal ploy though... it's been tried way too much... move on to something else.
You may not like it, but the war on Iraq means the terrorists that are in the area are fighting armed soldiers, for the most part, instead of our civilians here or abroad. We've no doubt killed thousands of people who would kill us, merely because we are American.
Sandman, I know you find it disturbing that we don't wait on our own soil and let them blow us all up. You must prefer this as you have never offered a solution to our problem other than to be critical of our efforts.
I'm thankful that you are not in power, it means the U.S. has a chance to survive.
You can spout that Al Queda and Iraq had nothing in common but anyone that isn't too busy hating our President knows that there was an Al Queda base in Northern Iraq and a jet fuselage for hijack training near Baghdad. Try to cast aside your unfounded hate and see this for what it is, it's the opening moves in a fight for survival, w/ radical islam on one side and the West(viewed as Christian) on the other.
If we lose, if we pull back, the entirety of the U.S. will be a happy hunting ground for terrorists, eventually.
Maybe you are unaware that terrorists have been killing Americans for years and we didn't do anything about it. Example: U.S.S Cole, our embassies, the first WTC.
We are finally fighting back. I know you don't want us to go after those that would kill us, you'd rather we stuck our collective head in the sand and just express impotent horror every time the blew up an American or 3000.
Yes, I am thankful people like you are not in power.
Clinton ignored the problem for 8 years. He was really popular here and abroad... that mattered to him above all else.
The cost of his ego massaging policies is that we are way behind in this war of survival. Like I said it's the ealry stages of the war, but I hope you one day learn that this is indeed that, a war of survival, and I hope you learn it before it is upon your doorstep.
