This is what we're up against. It is a frenetic network of fanatical terrorists, supported by a group of mad mullahs hell-bent on our destruction. Forget about the microanalysis of the Iraqi 'insurgency.' This is not primarily a war conducted by angry Baathist remnants of Saddam's bloody regime; it's much bigger than that, and the epicenter of the whole thing is in Tehran, and its ideology is brutally enunciated by Ahmadi Nezhad.
Britain, France, and Italy are at least expelling some of the jihadis, along with some of the most fanatical religious leaders. We are not, so far as one can see, doing even that. And we are certainly not taking any of the obvious, rational, and thoroughly justifiable steps to provide political and economic support to the most potent enemies of the world's most dangerous terrorist regime: the Iranian people.
Sooner or later, one of these many schemes will succeed, and we will have a new version of September 11th. Perhaps only then will our dithering leaders resume fighting the war against terror, a war currently limited, to their shame, to a defensive struggle within the boundaries of Iraq, while they move against us on a global scale.
Faster, please.

I'm now convinced that only a nuclear terrorist attack is going to wake up the West.
For a week or two. After that, we'll roll over and go back to sleep, again.
... and that'd be that. Game over. Thank you for playing. Ya'll glow in the dark now. Radiation cleanup and alternative energy companies and technologies would experience a true reneissance (buy stock now... :) )
can someone link that map of the new caliphate?
And, there is no way that they will see any connection between Iran and anything else. In spite of the fact that Iranian leaders have scapegoated and demonized America for 25 years, they will say that the Irqanian people never did anything to us.
I doubt Israel is stupid enough to absorb a first strike by Iran. My guess is Israel pulls the trigger on Iran when they deem they have no other choice remaining and the US state dept will chide them for over reacting and try to restrain them...unless we have a sitting president with cajones enough to slap them down.
Ann Coulter nailed it dead center right after 911 when she said (I'm paraphrasing) "the way to stop international terrorism is to kill off all the mullahs and imams, etc and offer the general muslim population the option to convert or..."
Maybe one of the freepers has her exact quote.
The wisdom of her statement becomes more apparent every day.
In other words:
"We want to be the world"....
good luck, but your gonna get your A$$ whipped if you don't shut your mouth....We are in the next country, and that's not ALL of our military...
