It’s much better than we thought. Not only has Iraq become the “cause celeb” for terrorists, it’s where they are being killed by the thousands. Democrats are in high dudgeon over a single line in the latest NIE report that says Iraq is drawing in foreign fighters. Democrats wailed and moaned, cried, shouted and whined that Iraq was only strengthening the enemy.
Only after much hand wringing from sisified Democrats and their terrorists cheering stooges in the MSM did we hear from the new nut-case running al Qaeda operations in Iraq. Well yeah, it turns out that a lot of foreign fighters are showing up in Iraq to become martyrs, and the coalition is obliging them in huge numbers. The new al Qaeda leader Hamza al-Muhajir celebrated the fact that 4,000 (the real number must be much higher) foreign fighters have been killed in Iraq – which make one wonder what might cause such a man to morn.
All of this would seem to bear out what President Bush has been saying. Iraq is the central front in the war on terror. If we kill the Islamo-terror-fascists there, we will not have to kill or try them, with all of our civil liberties and rights, here after they have knocked down another building or two.
The clueless among us, of course, will continue to argue that had we just left them alone, the ITF that populate the madrasses and listen to the whacko imams would never have come out against us. That idea is as nutty as a Snickers bar. As Presidents Bush and Karzi have pointed out recently, the ITF have been waging war on us for the last 30 years. Lex thinks the war goes all the back to 1803 when the Marines took on the Barbary pirates in Tripoli.
Whenever this war started, we know that playing nice or hiding under the bed sheets in the hope that “they’ll just leave us alone” does not work. The ITF are committed to conquest, conversion or death – ours or theirs. I’m of the opinion that it ought to be theirs.
