Mass Murders for Democrats

“We see Hillary and other candidates are competing on who
will withdraw from Iraq,” said Abu Jihad of Al Aqsa’s Nablus unit.
“This is a moment of glory for the revolutionary movements in the Arab
world…”


Al Aqsa’s Nasser Abu Aziz, considered it “very good” that there are
“voices like Hillary and others who are now attacking the Iraq
invasion.”


Islamic Jihad’s Abu Ayman felt “emboldened” by Clinton’s demands
that America retreat from Iraq. He said: “It is clear that it is the
resistance operations of the mujahideen that have brought about these
calls for withdrawal.”


“All Americans must vote Democrat,” insisted Jihad Jaara, an
exiled Al Aqsa agent who commanded 2002’s siege of Bethlehem’s Church
of the Nativity.

American Thinker


American Thinker:

by Michael O’Shea


Snipers aim for a soldier’s heart; congressional leaders aim for the
heart of why he serves: Honor, Country, Duty to both. But to
congressional leaders, there’s no honor in Iraq. There can’t be: it’s
immoral. Illegal. And it’s not even their country’s war: it’s Bush’s.


Telling parents their child died for George Bush is telling Christa McAuliffe’s folks she died for Ronald Reagan.


JFK committed the US to space, but it wasn’t his race — it was
America’s. Astronauts knew the risks, the myriad of things that could
go wrong, yet signed on, boosted by their countrymen as much as by
rockets. There’s no such lift for soldiers today; they’re stranded,
ignored unless exploited, gains unseen, achievements unheard. The Tomb
of the Unknowns isn’t only in Arlington.


It’s one thing for leaders to oppose a mission, another to undermine
it; one thing to make course corrections, another to sabotage the ship,
one thing to overhaul an engine, another to wreck it in flight. The
time to abort a mission is before it’s launched. Once launched, it’s
all hands on deck. But for congressional leaders, it’s every man for
himself.


It’s not rifles or smart bombs or Humvees or night vision that separate American troops from others: it’s Honor.


Walter Reed can give soldiers news limbs, but where do they get
honor lost? There was honor in firemen’s fight to save those in Twin
Towers, honor in Flight 93’s Todd Beamer struggling to save those on
the ground in D.C., honor at D-Day, honor in Desert Storm: but to
congressional leaders there is no honor in Iraq: only pity.


And potshots at America’s new ally.


Every problem in Iraq is being attacked in Iraq by Iraqis and Americans together, yet congressional leaders snipe.

Snipe that Iraqis wouldn’t choose democracy: they have.

Snipe that Iraqis wouldn’t approve a constitution: they have.

Snipe that Iraqis wouldn’t share oil revenues: they have.

Snipe that Iraqis wouldn’t reintegrate former Baathists: they have.

Snipe that Iraqis wouldn’t fire corrupt commanders: they have.

Snipe that Iraqis wouldn’t turn against Sadr: they have.

Snipe that Iraqis wouldn’t turn against Al Qaeda: they have.

Snipe that Iraqis wouldn’t welcome American troops: they have.

Snipe that Iraqis troops are cowards: they’re not.

Snipe that Iraqis politicians are bickering, partisan, and self-serving.

Yet congressional leaders bicker on, partisan on, self-serve on,
proclaiming all the while Iraqis will never be statesmen like them.


Statesmanship may be the stance, but hunting is the game, the bigger the game the better.


Summon a general shouldering 160,000 American lives — his own son
soon to be among them - to an ambush disguised as a hearing and to
blasts, disguised as “disbelief,” that he lies.


Demand the head of a general, this one Marine, Vietnam vet, 40 years
dedicated to his country, whose name itself — Pace — means “Peace” in
his father’s native Italy, telling him he can’t be trusted with the
future of America’s fighters because of his past with America’s
fighters, his own son included. To his peers he’s a man of integrity,
to congressional leaders he’s unfit.


No matter

that he pledged and lived a life of sacred honor,

fought, as Vice-Chairman and then Joint Chiefs Chairman, to assure that troops shall not have died in vain,

that more Marines — 5,521 — died from five weeks at Iwo Jim than all services have in four years in Iraq.

Congressional leaders demanded his head. Marines routed Al Qaeda in
Anbar: on Capitol Hill, they haven’t got a chance. Such are the ways of
leaders paying lip service to troops while kissing up to backers.


Who exploited Abu Ghraib more — Al Qaeda or congressional leaders?
How many leaders came to troops’ defense saying those few betrayed
their buddies and their commanders, their commander-in-chief included?


Wronging prisoners is a capital offense; wronging military leaders
is a Capitol pastime. Friendly fire in battle is deplorable; on Capitol
Hill, it’s routine. Collateral damage is despicable, collateral damage
to troops matters as much to congressional leaders as nursery tots did
to Timothy McVeigh.


Congressional leaders love to mesmerize, hypnotize, repeating again
and again that Iraq is a fiasco staged by Bush, waged by Bush,
controlled by Bush, unaltered by Bush, conducted by Bush.


Unanimous advice of the Joints Chiefs? Never mentioned. Unanimous
judgment of the world’s intelligence communities? Never heard.
Unanimous resolutions by the UN Security Council? Never happened.
Unanimous conclusion by the 9/11 Commission that a failed Iraq will be
the top breeding ground for attacks against Americans? Never mind.


Iraq isn’t a quagmire — it’s a crucible. Masks are burned off,
character stands bare, make-up is wiped off, what you’re made of shows
through.


Rob troops of honor, parents of belief, Iraqis of hope: and what’s
left? A world peopled by the two-faced. Abandon hope all who enter here.


And prepare to be lulled by their lullaby. Within their world
there’s no Heaven, no Hell below us, Above us only sky, no countries,
nothing to kill or die for, no religion too, no possessions, no need
for greed or hunger, all the people living for today, living life in
peace, sharing all the world, the world will live as one: just Imagine.
Thus it is sung, thus it is sold. What a wonderful world it would be.


But that world is not this world. That world has no snakes; this one
does. That world has no rapists, killers, thieves, child molesters;
this one does. And this world has terrorists. Only in an imaginary
world would they vanish


Only in their imaginary world would Saddam not have rearmed as
sanctions ended and as he pledged. Only in their imaginary world would
there be

no North Koreans arming Saddam with outlawed missiles,

no weapons experts snuck in past inspectors’ eyes,

no Iraqi experts ordered not to leave,

no millions siphoned from Oil for Food,

no UN officials bribed,

no “friends” kicking back,

no financing terrorist attacks on Israel,

no race with Iran to nuclear-arm,

no Libya nuclear-arming already,

no A.Q. Kahn exposed since there’d be no one to expose him,

no No-Fly zones since there’d be no sanctions,

no attacks on Kurds north and Shias south when Saddam was again free,

no mass graves, rapist rooms, wires electrocuting testicles,

no millions of barrels of oil gushing out, billions of bucks gushing back in,

no haven offered to Al Qaeda when Afghanistan was attacked but Iraq was not.

All they are saying is give peace a chance: Saddam had 17.


How different the world would be were today’s congressional leaders
in power in 1957. Three years earlier, Brown v. Board of Education;
three years later, Arkansas National Guardsmen blocking blacks from
enrolling in Little Rock Central High. Ike sends the 101st Airborne,
nationalizes Arkansas National Guard, Blacks integrate, Supreme Court
enforced.


But congressional leaders, content with Saddam like Orval Faubus was
with segregation, would have pled for the status quo, letting the
Supreme Court issue opinions — and the UN issue resolutions — but God
forbid they ever be enforced.


Like Ike, Washington and Lincoln faced challenges unsought yet
sought victory. Such times would cow today’s congressional leaders.
They not only seek defeat now, they’d tell the world how to defeat
America again: homemade bombs, Hollywood stars, and
heroic-to-themselves bloggers are all that’s required.


Blue Angel pilots soar due to crews on the ground and Americans
backing those crews in return. Soldiers succeed in combat because of
team support and Americans, in turn, supporting those teams. But that’s
history. Marcus Welby is passé, Jack Kevorkian is Chief of Staff, Rosie
the Riveter dims, Susan Sarandon shines.


Congressional leaders — Saddam’s defense team — proclaim they know
now what they didn’t know then and thus would have let Saddam go. In
their imaginary world with their imaginary friends Schroeder and
Chirac, they’d have contained him. No sweat, no threat.


Nor would there have been lessons learned from Iraq because there’d
have been no Iraq to learn lessons from. IEDs — kryptonite in Iraq —
wouldn’t have exploded nor would suicide bombers. There’d be no
protesters: no soldier deaths to protest.


Congressional leaders would flood Afghanistan with troops and be
welcomed as liberators, no formerly anti-Soviet turned anti-American
jihadists among them. Poppies would disappear, democracy would pop up
in a civilization, like Iraq, thousands of years old. Bin Laden would
be seized or, should he flee to Pakistan, tribal Pakistanis - with no
Iraq invasion to goad them to ally with the US - would embrace American
troops and rally to rout Al Qaeda.


We’ve seen this play — and this ploy — before. Washing their hands
of a war whose unpopularity they helped create, concocting Pilate
programs so they didn’t get nailed, they ask not, What is truth?, but
What is Honor?


Such is the imaginary world of imaginary leaders — pretenders to the throne, pretenders to the noble, pretenders to good.


Little boys love toy soldiers; little leaders love toying with
soldiers, toying with honor, playing heart games, mind games, while
affirming they can touch hearts, touch minds of Muslims around the
world.


Contrast congressional leaders’ world with the one war fighters see:

a man who had weapons before and swore he’d have them again — and use them again — is gone;

a people terrorized for decades are free from him but not from Al
Qaeda, not from neighbors, not from other terrorists in their midst.

There’s honor in helping them, or should be. There’s an ally gained
from helping them through their stumbles and struggles, or can be.
There’s security for America as Iraq’s enemies who are America’s
enemies are annihilated. But sacrifice and selflessness are not
congressional leaders’ style.


Theirs is a world of one-liners and put-downs, cartoonists and
comedians, in-crowds and the trendy and the fashionable and zingers,
sermons about imposing democracy while foisting civil war, rants about
Halliburton while the real war profiteer, Michael Moore, waddles away.
In their world Cindy Sheehan marches into combat; in a soldier’s world,
medics would get her help. Billed as a world peaceful and loving,
beneath the mask it’s a world of bullies and cut-throats, soothing on
the outside, savage within.


A soldier’s world is one of straight-shooters, in more ways than
one. Asked if more troops will likely die in Iraq, David Petraeus
answered, Yes. Asked if billions more will be spent, David Petraeus,
answered, Yes. Asked if Iraq was worth it, David Petraeus answered,

Sir, I wouldn’t be here, and I wouldn’t have made the recommendations
that I have made if I did not believe that…this is about continuing to
commit yourself to something that is bigger than self.

No wonder congressional leaders have lost faith; faith in themselves is
the only faith they’ve ever had. Soldiers have faith in something, and
someone, bigger.


Iraq is about faith: faith that our troops know what they’re
fighting for, faith that their commanders do everything they can to see
them through and see them live; faith that Iraqis want to live free;
faith that their prime minister is risking his life — like the
slaughtered sheik leading Anbar against Al Qaeda — for his country and
not for spoils; faith that all men are endowed by their Creator with
inalienable rights; faith that American civilian leaders do their best
with the light they have for one nation under God.


There are honorable Democrats in Congress. The majority of House and Senate leaders are not among them


Nor is a senator, strengthened by sips from Lake Superior, scolding
General Abizaid that hope is not a method. To which he replied, Despair
is not a method.


Despair: literally meaning? “Hopeless.”


The only thing hopeless about Iraq is congressional leaders.

Europe is Burning

Europe’s no-go zones or SUAs (“sensitive urban areas”) are multiplying. These are areas where the police no longer dares to venture and where Islamists hold sway.

Every
night since the beginning of last week, immigrant youths have been
torching cars and clashing with police in Amsterdam’s Slotervaart
district.

The incidents started on Oct. 14 when a
policewoman shot dead Bilal Bajaka, a 22-year old ethnic Moroccan,
whilst he was stabbing her and a colleague with a knife.

The officers were stabbed in the breast, face, neck and back. Surgeons could only narrowly save their lives.


Since the incident, Slotervaart has seen rioting almost every night.

The Amsterdam Moroccans are “shocked” because one of them has been killed by an infidel woman.

According to his family, Bilal Bajaka was mentally deranged and had a suicide obsession. Ahmed Marcouch, the Moroccan-born Socialist mayor of Slotervaart, criticized the Dutch authorities for failing to provide adequate health care for Bajaka’s mental problems.


Bilal Bajaka was, however, a personal friend of Mohammed
Bouyeri, the Jihadist who ritually slaughtered the Dutch film maker
Theo van Gogh in 2004.

Bilal’s attack on the two
police officers came exactly two years after the arrest of his brother,
Abdullah Bajaka, the leader of an alleged plot to blow up an El-Al
Boeing at Amsterdam airport.

Bilal’s family background is not at all deprived.

I'll say it again:
Islam is a Death Cult
Allah is Satan, Mohammed(Pigs Be Upon Him) is His Prophet.
Islam is the Worship of Death.

Hillary's NEGATIVE 50%

WASHINGTON (AFP) — Hillary Clinton may be the Democratic Party's
2008 presidential front-runner but she also tops the list when voters
are asked for whom they would never, ever cast a ballot, a poll out
Monday found.

Fully 50 percent of US voters say that when it
comes to Clinton, she can campaign all she likes but there is no way in
the world she can win their support, with her negative rating up
slightly from 46 percent in March, the Zogby poll said.

Older
voters were the most hostile to the attorney and former first
lady-turned US senator, who is seeking to become the first woman US
president. Fifty-nine percent of those over 65 said they would never
vote for Clinton, according to the survey which ranked leading
Democratic and Republican hopefuls.

Liberals support Terror, Abuse of Women

Charles at LGF has
a roundup of the increasingly shrill and hysterical reactions to
Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week from campus Leftists at Columbia,
Indiana, Minnesota, Penn State, Washington State, and Wisconsin.



So the campus Left is placing itself
squarely on the side of those who want to implement the
institutionalized oppression of women and religious minorities
sanctioned by Islamic Sharia law,
who deny the freedom of conscience, and want to impose upon the world a supremacist and totalitarian code.

There is no Free Speech on campus

All campus speech must be approved as politically correct, ie: must be liberal.

George Washington University.

Young Americans for Freedom are holding Islamofacists awareness events.
Some liberal students post disgusting flyers and the YAF is accused of posting them.
The university president was going to take direct action against the students who posted the flyers until he learned it was some liberal students who posted the disgusting flyers, then he allowed the student government to handle the punishment.

Columbia University

Conservative speakers are run off the stage by 'brownshirt' liberal students - (Minuteman founder 2006) - Very little if any action was taken against these thugs who assaulted the conservative speaker.

There is No Free Speech on Campus.
There is No Debate Allowed.

Republican debate

The reviews are in.

The reviewers only agree on two points.

1) Republicans talk about issues and real solutions to the issues, with one exception - the party jester, Ron Paul.

2) Ron Paul is a joke.


Fred, Rudy, Mitt, John - All did well. All 'looked' and 'sounded' presidential.

Fred still has my vote.

Next Republican debate should only have Fred, Rudy, Mitt, and John.
