		<description>Is the US going to be serious and kick butt, destroy the insurgents of all stripes in a three to four month military offensive, or are they going to order our soldiers to stand out in the open, open targets, like ducks in a shooting gallery, for snipers and IEDs to kill?

Why even bother if our soldiers are merely to be lined up in the open and killed rather than allowed to do what they can do so well, track down and kill as many Jihadis as possible, and blow things up so these roaches cannot hide in some crevice somewhere.

Instead our soldiers are supposed to be &quot;charitable&quot; Social Workers, making a bridge between the Iraqis and the US, good will ambassadors if you will.

Come on!  Whose good will are they doing?

Even our so-called allies are giving aid and comfort to the enemy, and trashing US, even though our &quot;allies&quot; (France, Germany, and others) have been, and are totally dependent on US for their safety!

Please,

Stop playing, and stop putting our soldiers out to be slaughtered.

Organize and attack, kill the Jihadis, and secure that land.  Don&#039;t let the Jihadis get entrenched, and stop them from killing the Iraqi citizens!

Do it!

		<description>Once you remember that Saudi Arabia and the UAE have very close ties with Clinton, Gore, and Carter it makes understanding exactly why the left seems to support our enemies much more than President Bush&#039;s actions in Iraq.

I&#039;m sure that Bush went after Saddam because he was a truly evil person but the political reality is that he attacked a Sunni controlled country and has all but given it to their enemy, Shi&#039;a controlled Iran.  Even worse we&#039;ve injected democracy into Iraq which most kingdoms in the region view as a very dangerous thing, something they feel they must stop before it reaches their own palace door.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Yup, and how much Saudi money has gone to finance the 77,000 jihadis? Keep ‘em fightin’ us in Iraq and they won’t have time to attack the Saudi royal family.
Tony737 on December 18, 2006 at 8:42 PM&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Good analysis Tony; the Saudi&#039;s, et.al., are not unlike most dictators.  Create an outside evil (Castro=U.S., Chavez=U.S.)and the &quot;natives won&#039;t turn on you.</description>

		<description>This appears to be another manifestation of the demographic problem.  And one remedies a demographic problem in three modes:  birth, barrenness, and death.  Perhaps one somehow puts one&#039;s own women to work bearing children for many years, and then one patiently waits two decades for the babies to become adults.  Or perhaps one somehow keeps millions of the enemy&#039;s people from reproducing.  Or perhaps one makes them unable even to &lt;em&gt;think&lt;/em&gt; of reproducing.

Don&#039;t look at me that way, whoever you are; if I merely do the math, and thereby spare you the necessity to do it yourself, perhaps I might merit some excuse.  It seems the West survives by demanding women do their natural work, by making the others unable or unwilling to reproduce, by making an obscene slaughter, or by mixing these three modes.  But if any reader knows know how to right a demographic imbalance other than by birth, barrenness, and death, let him tell us.</description>

		<description>One must refrain from basing conclusions on reports when the topic concerns the Middle-East. In this region loyalties change like the moon. Everyone gets &#039;paid.&#039; No one speaks in public as they do in private and everyone is counting on someone else to do the work. Most have never had a &#039;job.&#039; Most would prefer not to have one. We must face the fact that there is only one answer. Oil revenues. Everyone gets a check. Everyone gets the same amount. Then they can go back to doing what they do best. Getting over on one another.</description>
