On the most important issue of our life time and that will effect many generations to come, the war on islamic terrorism, Ron Paul is a defeatist who is on the left of many left wing lunatics who want to surrender to the terrorists. This guy should not be in the debate, he is a huge embarrassment.

Isn't Bush the defeatist for attacking Iraq and not, say, Iran or Syria or North Korea? They are known and proven state sponsors of terrorism. Iraq's connection was tangential at best. I seem to remember a "Bush Doctrine" being announced after Afghanistan but before Iraq.

If the goal is to defeat terrorism, why aren't we going after the states that sponsor it? We've only strengthened Iran thus far (removing their prime adversary).

Go my FR home page and check the Iraqi documents that I translated that show Saddam regime very strong relation to islamic terrorism.

To say President Bush is defeatist is to say that George Washington and Abraham Lincoln were defeatist as well. President Bush is one the greatest President and he is a great leader. Iraq is the center front of the war on terror and both Iran and Syria are heavily involved by supporting and arming the terrorists there whether they are locals Iraqis or Al Qaeda. Once we crush the terrorists there, both the Iranian and Syrian terrorist regime will fall in a year or two after that.

Also before his term is over the President will unleash a massive air and naval war against the terrorist regime in Tehran to destroy their nuclear weapons and military infrastructures which will hasten the fall of this regime.
