"a shared struggle against extremism..."
This phrase indicates no thought of victory and defeating the enemy.
It means waving the white flag of surrender.
Dammit we are the United States of America. We have the capability in defeating this enemy. (With the great aid of New Zealand!) Peace will only be achieved when you vanquish your enemies that are committed to destroying your way of life. Apparently these idiots in Washington just don't get it.
Biden — what an embarrassment.
The United States of America is the greatest and most powerful Democracy in the entire History of the World. With military might to match and the brains and know-how and courage to do things that mankind could only dream of: like putting men on the moon, for instance.
(I was going to say “flight”, but New Zealand came first for that: the Wright Brothers came second after Richard Pearse... but I digress.)
A sign of America’s greatness has been the means whereby she has carried out the War on Terror, having compassion for the enemy’s wives and children and elderly folk — and indeed for the Enemy illegal combattants.
And, as well, showing Respect for the Enemy’s dark ages culture and institutions such as his death-cult religion, Islam — along with its “holy sites”, some of which having been stolen from the Jews.
A lesser power fighting the War on Terror — such as Nazi Germany — would have bombed their cities, hanged their leaders, destroyed their holy sites, put their fighting men before a firing squad and their women, children and elderly folk into concentration camps and gas chambers. All copies of their holy book the Koran would have been burned and their death cult religion thereafter would only be practised in Hell.
America doesn’t do this — but America could! What stops her is her Greatness and her Humanity. These also provide opportunity for her enemies to fight asymmetric wars with her — and win. Particularly if her leaders are men like Biden and Obama.
“A shared struggle against extremism” my ass! New Zealand might struggle to beat the Jihadis, but if it meant our Nation’s very survival we would kill them all and it would not worry us in the slightest: for there must be no question about it. If you are in a fight to the finish, then make sure you finish the fight. Let the Enemy mourn their dead, for a change.
And so Biden has now New-Zealandized the nature of the War on Terror for America: for the mighty United States it is now a “struggle”??? Like it would be for New Zealand???
How embarrassing!
I hope he intends to fight to win, the same way New Zealand would. Because he is in a fight to the finish.
Will the US finish the fight? Gotta hope so!
