I hate it when people try to make themselves look bright by suggesting something that is already on the books.

I found the article, er...curious. But it did bring out an interesting point. This being a world war demands that we think of it as such. We have to be careful with our resources. Iran is next (in whatever form) and then...

The thing that struck me in the article was the reminder that our strategy must evolve as we move forward and as the enemy becomes clearer to us. Saddam was "an enemy", al qaida is "an enemy," but after Saddam and the insurgents, and after Al Qaida and Ahmadinejad, there will still remain "the real enemy" (as even the President has stated)...the fascist quality of islam.

A poster earlier (and on another thread) wondered aloud if this cartoon flap wasn't a diversion. The same question might apply to Ahmadinejad's outrageous statements.

It is a big mistake to arrogantly assume we know exactly what we are doing in this war and that it is exactly the right thing. It is a big mistake to underestimate the enemy.

This is a very important war...we cannot afford to lose.

"It is a big mistake to arrogantly assume we know exactly what we are doing in this war and that it is exactly the right thing. It is a big mistake to underestimate the enemy."

Well if we don't know exactly what we are doing, let's do some brain storming.

It is essential to be true to our word to win this war. The American people and the moderate Muslims will remember that the Admin told them we would not be in Iraq one minute longer than we need to be.

To take that back now would do more to lose the long term war than anything else we could possibly do.

We need to leave Iraq as an allies and bust the myth that the US is an occupier.

The long term war, ironically, will be won by the liberals who can convince moderate Muslims that all they have been taught about the US is incorrect. That will take time. More military action will only reinforce what the Mullahs have been telling their people.

I realize the next question will be; What about the Iranian nukes?

We have the south flank, Europe can have the north. If they don't want to protect their own boarders, that's their problem.

Someone is creating propaganda to entice Americans to support hitting Iran militarily. Why? I don't think it is coming from this side of the pond.

I have also noticed a desperate attempt to blame America and Christians in general for the cartoon wars. I find that very odd. It of course has failed. Why?

Just some of my spaghetti observations for the week.

Your turn. :)
