"Harmless to our enemies and treacherous to our friends" - Bernard Lewis

The chorus is deafening.

Yesterday the bloated windbag who in the end worries more about his view than the environment told us "Iraq is George Bush's Vietnam".

Biden is totally against more men, and to boot, so apparently are varied people like Sen's. Brownback, Snowe and Collins, however, Biden is going to try and cut off funds putting him in the same camp with Mr. Kucininch.

What dynamic are these idiots viewing? What's their plan? More of the same, less, leave? Withdrawal, without a free Iraq will have results.

We can't just say, 'we won, you people suck and are corrupt killers, murdering each other, and friends of terrorists, so , so long and thanks for all the fish' .. the result of that will be as a leader of jihadistan has said ..."There is an atmosphere in America that encourages those who want to withdraw from Iraq...an evacuation would prove resistance works and would compel jihadists to continue fighting until America is destroyed" - Jihad Jaara, Palestinian Islamic Jihad

Withdrawal, without a free Iraq will have results.

It all comes down to whether or not one believes this is part of the global war against Islamic jihadistan. If this is NOT a part of the war against religious and personal freedoms, i.e. the essence of what this nation was begun for, then Iraq WAS a diversion and a waste and our responsibility there is limited to having broken it. It becomes about smart lawyering and cynical exit strategies. If it IS part of this war, then it's Guadalcanal. PERIOD.

I believe that no matter WHAT reality obtained in 2003, we are in a different one now. We are in a pivotal battle, in THE pivotal war. It's Iran, the salafi freaks, Hizballah and forces like the Baath, Syria, and Kim Jong Il against ideas that religious tolerance, free expression, and self government are ONE PATH in the human development experiment.

I strongly support an increased US presence. At first I was thinking that this might not have been the best strategy, but now I see what they're getting at: a sweep.

However, the only problem is, the ROE needs to be changed BEFORE we send in more troops. Grant all forces to shoot and kill. We need hunter-killer missions in Baghdad. If it moves, and it is enemy, shoot it.

Dennis Kucinich is not only a moron, he looks like a damned shoe salesman. He is about as worthless as tits on a nun IMO.
