I’d like to ask Taheri what he meant by that.

I think it meant that he actually knows the score. But he wants to give Pelosi and Reid an out to do the right thing, despite themselves. And to pat themselves on the back for being forced to do the right thing.

“Fortunately, you were not making the command decision in WW II or we might be speaking German.”

I don’t believe that. And there are pilots who flew on those missions who have serious doubts about the necessity of doing it.

Excellent article except for this statement:

Despite massive efforts by radical anti-war militants, the new Democrat leadership in the US has refused to help Al Qaeda realize its goals in Iraq

No Sir, the new Democrat leadership always have wanted to surrender to the terrorists but they were crushed by our President and our troops who are winning the war on the battlefields of Iraq.

They will try and their media will do its best to cover their treasonous and defeatist past, however they will fail miserably. They can fool 40% of the voters but 60% of the voters know exactly that the democrats wanted us defeated in Iraq.
