It’s no secret the left would have us back out of Iraq “gracefully.” Of course, that would be a “retreat,” snatching another defeat from victory. Fleeing Iraq, as the anti-everything’s on the left would have us do, would be a disaster, not just for America, but also for the entire world.
As the sole Super Power left, facing us down and defeating us would be a feather in the terrorist’s cap we could not recover from in our lifetime. Even the effects of abandoning Viet Nam are still being felt worldwide.
I saw some of it after Viet Nam while in Germany. Right after the 1972 Olympics where most of the Israeli team was murdered by Muslim terrorists, another group, the Baider Meinhoff Gang, also known as the Red Brigade, Red Army Faction and several others, reared their ugly heads in Europe.
They started setting off bombs outside of US Installations and going after our interests. For once, we were actually armed on Guard Duty with instructions to fire, if threatened. Even us NCOs were walking guard around our helicopters everyday. The German Military set up a Machine Gun Nest at the Autobahn Entrance just prior to the entrance to Feucht Army Airfield, outside Nurnberg and they weren't playing. Not with a 50 Caliber.
My point being, they saw America backing down and becoming neutered by the left and used it, seeing we really were just Paper Tigers after all. I don't remember how it all died down after a bit, but it did.
Ever since we fled Viet Nam, these little pissant groups and nations have been nipping at our heels and we have allowed it, until now.
If the leftist get their way, the nipping will become fill scale biting.
We cannot leave that for our children to deal with!
Choose who you vote for very carefully.
god help us if they don't.
God help if they do.
Why a group that believes appeasement and running away think they can handle keeping the US secure is beyond me. Hopefully, most Americans will realize that they can't. Giving Democrats control will just mean higher taxes and more terror attacks inside the US.
God help us all if Democrats win!
Vote in November Republicans!
Bah.
As if politicians have anything to do with keeping us safe.
Anyone who knows anything about the nature of the War on Terror knows by now that it is not a matter of federal agencies and a few hundred employees watching over us.
It is a million neighbourhood watch programs, a hundred million vigilant citizens, and having all the police, fire, and medical services we can muster.
The terrorists who threaten America are from Florida, not Iraq. They aren't trying to get in - they were born here. The sooner we accept this, and turn our attention towards a police procedural solution to national security, the better.
The party that chooses this path will get my vote when the time comes.
