What in the world are these cowardly fools thinking?!?!?
Did they learn nothing in the study of events at the end of the Vietnam War?
We never lost that war, we gave it away. We were never defeated on the battlefield, we were defeated at the diplomatic table.
When Henry Kissinger signed the peace agreement in Paris in 1973, the North Vietnamese were literally hours away from giving in to the demands that they withdraw all influence in South Vietnam, allowing that nation to survive.
Hours.
But a vocal minority at home had pressured the Nixon administration, [just as it had hounded Lyndon Johnson from the White House] to bring the war to a conclusion.
Now, we are reasonably close to a solution in Iraq, and the liberals in this country have generated a movement [one that was always present, but had been idling in the background] to show the world our National will had evaporated, along with our National honor, and we should leave Iraq to the Iraqis. We should cut and run.
In the process, this very vocal, and illogical movement by the left, particularly the national Democratic leadership, publicly attempting to railroad the President of the United States into a policy decision they have no right to make, is costing the lives of US military personnel and Iraqis.
Yes, Nancy Pelosi, Jack Murtha, Harry Reid, Ted Kennedy, and John Kerry, along with some very stupid Republican renegades, are killing US Armed Forces personnel, and those of our allies, and innocent Iraqis by the score! They think their election results last November gives them a mandate to dictate National policy to the President of the United States. Allow me to remind them of the separation of powers as structured by the United States Constitution. Congress does not make policy.
Their treacherous, treasonous, traitorous, and unconstitutional actions simply encourage the insurgents in Iraq, leading to renewed and prolonged violence, costing far more lives than the successful prosecution of the effort in Iraq would have cost without this “public support for the insurgency in Iraq by the liberals of this country”.
In 2001, President Bush, speaking before Congress and the world shortly after the September 11 attack, said
Now, this war will not be like the war against Iraq a decade ago, with a decisive liberation of territory and a swift conclusion. It will not look like the air war above Kosovo two years ago, where no ground troops were used and not a single American was lost in combat.
Our response involves far more than instant retaliation and isolated strikes. Americans should not expect one battle, but a lengthy campaign unlike any other we have ever seen. It may include dramatic strikes visible on TV and covert operations secret even in success.
We are currently fighting terror organizations in Iraq. Al Qaeda, and whatever Iran and Syria can push into the mix.
The liberals just don’t get it. We are not fighting the Iraqis. That war ended in 2003. We are fighting terrorists. And we are fighting them there because they chose to fight there. We are fighting them there so we will not have to fight them here, on our own soil.
Why have the Iraqis failed to exert more control over their own people, allowing sectarian violence to enter the mix? Because the terrorist strike at the lines of men waiting to join the police or the Iraqi military, detonating bombs that kill recruits by the scores. It takes time to train a military, and it take time to train a police force. Thousands of recruits have died, and thousands more have been severely wounded, simply because they were standing in line to join the Iraqi Police. Still more were butchered in their police stations after being trained, or kidnapped to be tortured and executed elsewhere.
Al Qaeda does not want Iraq to succeed. So they strike at the three most dangerous threats to their plans, the Allied Forces, the Iraqi military, and the Iraqi police. Al Qaeda found another aid to their cause when they pushed enough buttons, alternately bombing, or mass-executing Sunnis and Shiites. They started the sectarian violence.
And American Democrats encourage these monsters by showing a face to the world that America has had enough in Iraq. Cut and run!
The warning:
Run now and the Iraqi people pay a terrible price immediately. The price of oil will skyrocket, and blood will flow freely in the streets of Iraq as full scale civil war erupts.
Run now and we will be targeted for large scale terrorist attacks in our homeland within 18 months.
Run now, and our word will never be worth a thin dime internationally, or at home.
Run now and you render meaningless the hundreds of allied dead in Iraq.
Run now and you create another generation of “Vietnam Veterans”, stealing from the Iraq War veterans their honor and their lives.
Run now, and it will be to your eternal shame. There is no hiding who is behind this movement.
What cowards!
