In the Ivey article you referred to he makes this statement, in the next to last paragraph:
"Thats what makes the American leftists so absurd: they sympathize with the insurgents/terrorists who kill innocents, while castigating Americans who sacrifice themselves to free the captives and uplift the downtrodden."
Make no mistake about it, if you research this nutjob named Cindy Sheehan you will come to know that she was an America hater well before her son was killed. She has NO conception of what REALLY motivates these terrorists, but finds America and Bush to be whipping-boys convenient to her agenda. She is a left-wing activist that has trumpeted not one or two of the most common assertions of the left, but ALL of them(including that he stole the election/s). She has NO HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE of what fundamentalist Islam is all about and is the typical spongey-headed loon one commonly finds on the left. They demand, in the most strident voices, their individual rights and, most especially, that 1st Amendment one YET they fail to understand that one must be prepared to fight to stop those who would take away those rights. She calls the President the biggest terrorist in the world and couldn't tell you what an Islamofascist is and what's worse...doesn't care for she is blinded by hatred.
I run a website for my US Navy ship reunion association and have composed most of the content. I have a page titled THE WAR ON TERROR I put together; specifically, as food for thought for those always critical of the President and this war. It's located at:

Rather than post the lengthy remarks I invite you to visit and read them for yourself. I most sincerely beleive what I stated really needed to be said. Feel free to make a post with your comments.
Her radical supporters are not. If you are amazed and do not understand how Americans can support the jihadis, David Horowitz explains how in Unholy Alliance. Both the left and islam see the US as their blood enemy, although for different reasons.
Did you know that world socialism is inevitable? The Moveon, Answer, Not in our Name and Lawyer Guild types think so. By dominating world affairs and promoting capitalism the US is delaying the inevitable socialist world and is therefore immoral. Fighting the US in the name of social justice is the higher good.
As for jihadis we are the great satan because we stand between them and world islam.
Hard to believe, but the American left and islam share the goal of destruction of these United States.
