Damn.
There is no technological solution to the problem; it can only be resolved by sufficiently hard attitudes towards the vermin perpetrating these acts.
I would think that the more violent they get the more desperate they are. If the surge was not working they would be content to ride it out. But I think they know their time is limited, and worse still they know our time is limited. The opposition has made it very clear to our enemies that violence and mayhem on their side. The MSM has shown repeatedly that they will trumpet any attack in the worst possible words and pictures to the world.
The biggest plus in all of this that finally the locals are getting fed up with the minority calling the shots and making such a PITA of themselves. Sounds like here in the US!
There is little doubt that this is a short term tragedy and loss
But people should realize that this monstrous behavior does more to indict Al Qaeda, the Islamic militants, and objectionists of Iraq. It creates a solid culture where Iraqis want to reject Islamic constitutions and move in a more secular direction. It makes them want to sign up for police duty that cooperates with Coalition authorities.
The Iraqis will defeat this monstrosity and it will be the decisive beginning of the end for the Islamist agenda in the World.
Huge victory for the Democrats.
I think it is past time to call Muslim Terrorists cowards and condemn them. They need to be forcefully identified as such by ALL citizens of ALL countries and condemned. MSNBC, ABC,NBC,CBS, CNN, BBC and the likes are enabling these Muslim Terrorist bastards by their own cowardice (protecting their reporters a la Eason Jordan of CNN) and hatred for Western Civilization. Common MSM, be brave and condemn these barbaric acts just like you and your lefty compatriots condemned Imus.
Pelosi’s trip is bearing fruit for the enemy. This is just what the Dems wanted.
Hagel, Paul and the Democrats say we must turn our backs to these Al Qaeda supported terrorists and leave now.
These Sunnis are just begging to be slaughtered to the last man and the Shiittes are sure to do it once we “get out of Dodge”. (And it would be hard to blame them).
Each fanatical sect self detonating on each other. Too bad the entire lot of them could not be enticed to an totally uninhabited A-bomb atoll each and every one practicing and practicing.
The beat goes on. It goes without saying that one can’t win a war this way.Our enemies KNOW who they are, and if hit, would certainly know WHY. The war, from the beginning should have had a minimum of a dozen serious targets, all involving ONLY the taking out of selective pieces of infrastructure,only possibly ONE in Iraq, and the message would have been sent.If they didn’t get the message, or pretended not to know WHY we did it, we could explain it to them in no uncertain terms. Instead we wage a piecemeal “virtual” war whose purpose is not to win, but to change perceptions. We might as well be doing it on a computer monitor. Instead we coddle “allies” like Saudi Arabia, who are far worse than some we’ve waged this hopeless “war” on. We never decided that we were really at war, and that is precisely what this “conflict” has in common with Vietnam. If we’d had corporate types like this in charge in 1941, we’d all be speaking German. We should have hurt them enough to bring them to the table. If they still continued their ways against the West, and Israel, hurt them twice, and keep hurting them until they come around. And if they never come around, well, then they have made the choice not to join planet earth at its now constituted , and their fate would be of their own choosing. Post 9-11, this whole thing should have had as its kick-off strategy, the deportation of every
suspicious Muslim Jihadist-in-waiting. Europe will eventually have to do it, and I suggest its not too late for us. We’ll all be better off, and CAIR can be shown the door and pack its bags, and CAIR is indeed symbolic of our paralysis at home and abroad:we have allowed our country to be FILLED WITH TROUBLEMAKERS WHO ARE ONLY HERE TO UNDERMINE US, and they capitalize on our every failure, false start, and wrong turn.
I demand we outlaw... all bombs!
Well! I sure do... feel safe now!
That... is my girl!
