The left wanted Iraq to fail just as they wanted Vietnam to fail. The two things that scare the political left are the military and strict constitutionalists. Not all leftist are cowards, but all cowards are leftist. The left will only attack people, groups, and institutions that will not fight back, such as the Christian church and the military. You will never see a leftist attack Islam. They would pee in their pants if they thought that a Muslim was angry with them.
It is far far worse than that. I have some POS PX rats who hitched up to get cheap booze attacking LTC Lakin on FR. The country put a muslim in charge.
Ball games, reality TV, wrestling, Hee Haw, Jersey Shore, NCAA ball games and other inane BS on the propaganda tube (all channels including Fox/Saudia) watched by idiots turne dthe power over to the Islamists. I cancelled TV a year ago because it is all leftist propaganda.
