This is a remarkable document from al-Zawahiri, indicating some serious doubts at the top of al-Qaeda as to the prospects of the success of jihad.

Don't forget this classic from Abu Musab Al-Zarqawi

[God luvs America]

Zawahiri underlines how the jihad has already achieved successes. In Iraq, he maintains, the resistance "stabs America every day and makes it scream and search feverishly for a way out of its predicament there."

....this can easily be replaced with the following and be just as true....

Zawahiri underlines how the liberals and their mouthpices in the MSM has already achieved successes. In Iraq, he maintains, the liberals "stab America every day and makes it scream and search feverishly for a way out of its predicament there."

A ha! The old stabbed in the back routine:

"History," al-Zawahiri warns, "shall hold it against you that when the Mujahid vanguards rose and hope was awakened in the ability of the Muslim Ummah to resist, you stabbed it from behind. As long as this malignant illness continues to survive within us there is no hope for victory".

I guess they really are screwed.

All Al-Zawahiri needs to do is go here and see NBC for help; http://thepoliticalteen.net/2005/07/02/1855/

It is hard to raise the morale of a force that gets its head shot off every time they stick it out of their hole.

We are winning in Iraq in a big way based on our own force projection; the creation and inclusion of ever growing numbers of allied domestic fighters into this conflict does not bode well for the enemies morale.

Once the locals decide that democracy is better than carrying their loved ones home in pieces after the daily ied detonation it will all be over for the enemy in country.

In the coming months it will become critical to ensure the total extermination or incarceration of every enemy operative in the field. We can not let any of them escape justice. The most damage done to a force is done to a force in retreat.

"stabs America every day and makes it scream and search feverishly for a way out of its predicament there."

Zawahiri reads the New York Times I see.

"there is no hope for victory"

Take that boxer, pelosi and reid and put it where the sun don't shine.
