It was the wrong course. All of it was wrong. We are not on the road to victory. We’re about to slink home with our tail between our legs, leaving civil war in Iraq and a nuclear armed Iran in our wake. Bali was bombed. Madrid was bombed. London was bombed. And Bin Laden is still making tapes. It’s unspeakable. The liberal media didn’t create this reality, bad policy did. ROLL OVER AN PLAY DEAD APPEASEMENT ALERT! "It's our fault the WTC was attacked, and London, Bali and Madrid was bombed"
ASS
"ROLL OVER AN PLAY DEAD APPEASEMENT ALERT! "It's our fault the WTC was attacked, and London, Bali and Madrid was bombed"
Exactly...and the USS Cole, the Khobar Towers and Riyadh, the US Embassies in Kenya and Tanzania and even the first WTC in 1993; all of this before Bush...and any of his policies, were ever in effect. What policy does he think we should employ? More appeasement? Hell, throughout the 1990s we had a president who bent over backwards to coddle these people.
We sided with the Muslims in the Balkans against their Christian enemies; We sided with Arafat in his demands against Israel in another attempt at ME peace; We not only ignored the Muslim brutality in E. Timor and Indonesia, Clinton continued to allow weapons to be sold to those slaughtering the Christian population.
Hell, this was an administration (in an attempt to help Gore) that was very close to re-establishing diplomatic relations with the Iranian Government.
To think that any kind of diplomacy or kindness was ever going to work with these people is a fools errand. For almost a decade Clinton did just that, taking their side and accommodating their demands. And yet even with this appeasement, we still experienced some of the most abhorrent attacks on US citizens and property...leading up to and concluding with 9/11. The very idea that we could continue on that present course was a joke.
