“AND NO REAL RESULTS”
How’s Al Qaeda in Iraq been doing lately?
“How’s Al Qaeda in Iraq been doing lately?”
Like all of the insurgents tied by the same ideology, a whole lot better than if their strongholds had been bombed into rubble. It would have taken two, maybe three times of doing this, and this would be over by now I would bet.
What are we going to do about Al Qaeda in Iran and everywhere else? Another ground war? How about Syria? A ground war? How about Saudi......a ground war?
Hey, I have an idea. lets use some of those highly trained pilots in those multi-million dollar fighters and bombers, that we spend hundreds of millions of dollars of training on, to bomb the hell out of the military assets and defense systems of a few key Islamic nations (including Tehran), and threaten to come back next time with nukes instead of conventional bombs if they don’t clean up the terrorists networks in their own countries. With Iran, if they don’t stop harboring Al Sadr and other terrorists and stop working on a nuclear weapons program. Would that work better?
Oh yea, we are in a world popularity contest and would rather keep losing our own lives and burying our future generations in debt.
First of all, we aren't fighting Al Qaeda - we are at war with islam. Second: How's Al Qaeda doing around the world lately? They have taken some hits but they are still growing in numbers. What government is in power in Iraq simply isn't germane. You have to look at the bigger picture. Do you understand what I'm talking about when I suggest Iraq is, on a strategic scale, only a fortification? And a bloody expensive one.
