"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus
Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi will be sitting in comfortable chairs in warm living rooms surrounded by family and friends this holiday season while they leave our best and bravest out cold in Iraq with no money for food or medical supplies, no support for the very troops that they with their IWR votes sent into harms way and now that we are actually on the right course for victory have sold out for thier own political advancement from thier fringe wacko leftists. If I was Bush IAW with the Constitution art II I would recall Congress into special session to address the American people on why they refuse to fund our troops this holiday season.
“In other news, Mama Boss Pelosi and Dingy Harry continue to be devastated at the news of Al Qaeda’s reverses.”...Yes! “Their war” is also going badly.
We Can Now Measure al-Qaeda’s Presence In Iraq
***************************EXCERPT***********************
We have seen months of declining violence in Iraq as al-Qaeda’s one time allies - and continuously victims - have turned against them. Now al-Qaeda has decided to go for broke in Iraq and increase their massacring of fellow Muslims. They must think this is the only way to avoid defeat, since their defeat in Iraq would cripple their credibility and support across the Middle East:
The leader of the Islamic State in Iraq, an al Qaeda-linked group forced on the defensive by its former tribal allies, ordered a renewed bombing campaign against Iraqi security forces in a Web message on Tuesday.

Is al-Qaeda a force to be reckoned with or a spent movement heading into oblivion? We will know one way or the other through December and January. If al-Qaeda is able to muster a comeback it will sadly show up in the death toll figures for Iraqis and Americans. However, if they are a spent force then that too will show itself in the same figures as little to no change in the current trend showing regular reductions in the violence.
al-Qaeda has laid it all on the line. But they must know the Americans and Iraqis are prepared and ready for them. The final battle seems to be on.
