Al Qaeda felt they could take on the U.S. because they deluded themselves into believing that they single-handedly defeated the Soviet Union–ignoring the facts playing havoc within the USSR at the time, and fact that they were armed, and otherwise supported by The Great Satan.

Retreating from Iraq hands them a victory they could never otherwise dream of, and will be seen by their fellow Muslims as such. If we are shocked by the rate of slaughter perpetrated on the streets of Baghdad, I suggest that we consider what that same kind of slaughter would mean when perpetrated on the streets of any American city you care to name. Do you think that the civilian justice system will be able to handle it? Or will we have troops on the streets? Will those American Muslims who are now silent about terror join their brothers? Look at what is happening in Britain, where jihad is looking more and more attractive to Muslim children, regardless of what their parents think. Why remain on a side that considers its culture unworthy of a fight?

Europe, especially, had better hope we don’t give a monumental victory to the enemy, because they will be the first to feel the effects. But not the last, by any means.

I think Joe hit the nail on the head with this: “Many of the worst errors in Iraq arose precisely because the Bush administration best-cased what would happen after Saddam was overthrown. Now many opponents of the war are making the very same best-case mistake–assuming we can pull back in the midst of a critical battle with impunity, even arguing that our retreat will reduce the terrorism and sectarian violence in Iraq.

Once upon a time an opposition party would change strategy in order to insure victory after setbacks. But that is too hard for the Dems-why do something different when you can just quit the fight? It probably won’t hurt them with their constituency, but that does not mean that it won’t hurt us at all.

“Lieberman is already seen as a traitor to his party, and the people he is speaking to are so committed to their path, that simple common sense is unlikely to have any effect.”

So true.

It is stunning, that Lieberman has to make a statement such as this, to begin with. The anti’s are doing this at this time for one reason and one reason only. Their deranged despise of George Bush in the hopes they hand him a defeat, they have been wanting to do since the year 2000. The anti’s are saying in essence ‘the hell with_________’, fill in the blank. We are after, Bush.

Throughout American history, there have been balker’s, little minded people and outright cowards of things that need or needed to be confronted. This is no different. What lies (and they do) out there as the enemy not only affects the United States of America, but a world that enjoys the freedom (or wishes to have)the freedom that this enemy has expressly stated they will, if not confronted, extinguish.
