Today, half of America is more concerned with this man's wellbeing & human-rights than the imminent danger he and his friends pose to them and the world in general.
It's truly sad but true.
And that is why we must not let our Democrat party run our federal government.
The are all just like Bill Clinton, See No Evil, Hear No Evil & Speak No Evil!
One Democrat Presidental candidate, John Edwards, actually said the phrase "War on Terror" was nothing more than a bumper-sticker slogan.
When I 1st came to FR, about 2y ago, I was concerned about my country. Now Im affraid for USA....
And unfortunately Edwards was right, in a backhanded sort of way -- although I doubt he knew why he was right!
How do you have a "war on a tactic" and not on a country or a people? How do you get in bed with the same people who are sponsoring this war against America and then say that we are fighting the tactics that our bedfellows are sponsoring? How do you not secure our borders, knowing that terrorists are among the illegal Mexicans -- and still claim that you are "keeping America safe from terrorists"? The "war on terror is a bumper-sticker slogan" when we refuse to identify the enemy until after he is a perpetrator of violence against us, because that is the only choice that "a war on a tactic" leaves us.
We need "a war on Islamic terrorists"! Problem is that it is not PC to say this, because we have yet to find a way to separate "the terrorists" from "the ordinary Muslims". This because even the line within Islam, as to who agrees with using terrorism against the US, is blurry when you hear how many "ordinary Muslims" think that terrorism against us is OK "in certain circumstances".
You are right that "America has changed" -- we used to know who our enemies and our friends are. Now, we have no "friends" -- only "interests", and no "enemies", only "interests". If we can't identify who our enemies are, there is no way that we can fight them and win!
