If Iraq fails, it will mean IMHO tens of millions of Muslim dead, use of nuclear weapons, the re-expelling of Muslims from Europe, India, the Phillipines, mass conversion of Muslims in Africa and quarantining of what remains of the Muslim world. So, if you are "antiwar", I told my friends, you ought to be backing Bush far more actively than conservatives do. That's the way to save lives, limit world disruption and prevent nuclear war. Did they listen? Hell, no.

==================================================================

That IS indeed the bottom line. The last 9/11 was a brief "disruptive influence" to most leftist & anti-war Americans. It shook their world view a bit, and at least shut them up for a few months while they reevaluated the important things in their life (i.e. in the words of Bill Clinton and John Kerry, "political viability").

But that did not last long; they were back at it by the 2004 election. The news media seems to have lost every single copy of 9/11 news coverage that shows average Americans hurling themselves off buildings 100 floors up rather than suffer the agony of burning to death. The propaganda war against the war has been in full force since early 2002. (But of course, not a single American soldier's death in "Bush's war" goes uncovered, and re-covered. It's about focus and priorities for the press, reminding American's not of why we are at war, but that we should never have been at war.)

"Hit Bravo" (a.k.a. the "next 9/11") will involve more than one city and a few thousand innocents. It'll likely involved hundreds of thousands or even millions of Americans. The reason the Muslims have not effectively struck America since 9/11, contrary to the opinions of the foolish American left (i.e. that there was never a threat to begin with), is that the Muslims are thinking big. "9/11" and the current war has taught the Muslims that simply killing a few thousand American civilians or troops is something America can tolerate. They won't waste their time or limited resources with another "pin-prick" strike again. The current war should inform us of their resolve; they're not giving up. The Muslims will kill million's of Americans next time they strike on American soil.

After "hit Bravo", all the "anti-war" platitudes and "Bush died; < fill in the blanks here > died" chants will not disuade Americans that their lives and very future are at stake. Muslims in America will be rounded up and put into camps, or deported. Mosques WILL be closed. And the nations that have hosted and supported the terrorists, including Iran, Syria, and Pakistan, but certainly not other Arab countries, will experience Nuclear war first hand on their own soil.

This is because, when there are perhaps a million Americans dead and dying horrible deaths, the news media won't be able to look the other way, and Americans will not forgive or forget the Muslims and their enablers here in the USA, the Democrats and their leftist allies. Pain and death and starvation have an ironic way of focusing a mind on causation, and the American mind will be entirely focused at eliminating the cause of their suffering.

They will know that the cause wasn't George Bush, after all.
