Yes, unfortunately that's true and that's why we should never shut up about Norquist or the other closeted Copperheads or Bush's reference to Islam as the religion of peace.
• "Thats why I support the Bush decision to establish bases in Iraq, and fight terrorism from them until we win."
Yes, until we win.
• "Yes indeed. We're in the right place, and we intend to stay there."
At least with some number of forces, until the GWOT terror is successfully concluded.
• "Policing rival tribal factions in Iraq is 'the black flag battlefield'? Can you elaborate on that point?"
My reference to the Islamic "black flag battle to the death", meant that when the terrorists (not necessarily meaning rival tribal factions) collectively declared war upon America, prior to 9-11, they did so with the intention of fighting a no-holds-barred battle until either they were victorious or until their last man falls and taking no prisoners along the way. They will not negotiate, they will not surrender, they will not agree to any peace short of total victory against the West. We have only three choices: We can fight them today with conventional weapons or we can fight them tomorrow with nukes or we can surrender. There are no other choices.

Norquists suggestions: withdrawing United States troops to safe citadels within Iraq or by "handing Falluja over to the Iraqis and saying, 'It's your headache.' "
Yes, unfortunately that's true and that's why we should never shut up about Norquist or the other closeted Copperheads or Bush's reference to Islam as the religion of peace.
Bush is trying to end a war against terrorists, not incite a religious crusade.
The four rules of terrorism that the Copperhead pukes need to learn: There is no such thing as international terrorism that is NOT state sponsored. No exceptions.
Thats why I support the Bush decision to establish bases in Iraq, and fight terrorism from them until we win.
Yes, until we win.
Good to see you agree.
There is virtually NO Islamic state that does not sponsor terrorism.
Thats why we are in Iraq, in the middle of them.
If you go to war with one Islamic terrorist organization or terror sponsoring state, you've gone to war with all of them. No exceptions.
Yes indeed. We're in the right place, and we intend to stay there.
At least with some number of forces, until the GWOT terror is successfully concluded.
Again you agree. Nice.
Terrorists have chosen to make their war a black flag battle to the death, they can only be defeated on the battlefield.
Policing rival tribal factions in Iraq is "the black flag battlefield"? Can you elaborate on that point?

So, do you have a point that counters any of mine?
You've been preaching to the choir, Bootie.
