Baker's Panel Rules Out Iraq Victory

Submitted by Ralph Emerson Benn, Nov 27, 2006 23:23

Appeasing Jihad Terrorists by agreeing to sit down with Iran and Syria and 'negotiate' a fair and reasonable assessment of problems, and work to achieve a settlement so we can save face and retreat, rests on an insane concept that the Kill-Culture has rational leadership. We have been in a defensive posture since November 04, 1979 when the Ayatollah Khomeini held our Embassy diplomats hostage for 444 days.

Where are the determined Statesmen? Where are the Franklin Roosevelt and Winston Churchill's in our time of National and World Peril. Do we cave in to Radical Islam's Shiite Iran? They represent only 15% of Islam. We need a Barry Goldwater to scream from his grave, "Extremism, In The Defense of Liberty Is No Vice!"

The entire world is watching, waiting for us to show some resolve, and military might, and courage. There is no alternative to absolute victory on the battlefield, or at the conference table. In a few short months, the radical elements of Islam will have their long-sought Nuclear capacity. Shall we wait just a bit longer?

Every week that passes, the Jihadi gain strength, and the 'progressive' debaters whine and wring their hands, and mollify into soft pudding, half-believing their own deceptive talking points. reb
