Are they sitting around asking "what can we do to get America to kill us?" No. But do they see death from American bombs as a deterrent to their goals? No.
That and the Russians aren't beholden to PC nonsense and have no reservations about going in and wiping them out if need be.
Personally, I don't think we ever again will defeat the enemy without until we defeat the enemy within.
Sad but true.
Unfortunately the West has become very PC.
Europe wants to bash us but let us spill our blood for everyoe.
The Mooselims want us dead.
The Jews living here want the Democrats. They don't even care what happens to Israel.
The Germans want to inherit the world by sitting on the sidelines and cheering.
The Russians want to ally with China to teach us a lesson.
Our own country dislikes itself and does everything possible to ruin the freedoms it enjoys.
Maybe we should just pull back all of our troops worldwide, (why do we still maintain troops in Germany?) declare that our country has decided to become neutral, act like Switzerland and leave the policing of the world to someone else for a change?
We could use the money we save to build incredible defensive and offensive eapons that no one would ever dare to attack us.
Just a thought.
I agree that a defeatist attitude does not help. You may take hope in our history and in the "American spirit." However, aside from the actions of our armed forces, what gives you encouragement today with regard to our war with the jihadists? What tells you that a critical mass of the American people understand the threat and are willing to pay the price of victory?
Hmmm .... did you ghostwrite "State of Emergency" for Pat Buchanan?
(that's intended to be a compliment, by the way)

Pat Buchanan talks about this issue? I must read his book.
I'm very frustrated by this.
LOL, that's true.
Has anyone else noticed this? The Liberal Press is just setting in and declaring that we "lost" everywhere we go in. I don't know how many of you noticed that immediately the press set in on how many US soldiers we lost. They report this number (only) for obviuos reasons: it makes us look like we're losing the war. Whe you report that number to Americans, it only does two things: 1 demoralizes the war supporters 2. it gives the anti-war activists ammunition for haating the war. Basically, there is no way to look at the numbrer of US soldiers killed and see it as a "good" number.
That already happened; and it also happened to those who lead this country.
