My Enemy Is Your Enemy
By Daryl L. Hunter
My enemy is your enemy therefore you are my friend. That is why we allied with Stalin our ideological enemy in 1939 and gave him billions of dollars of munitions during WW2.
Hitler partnered with the Japanese not because he included Asians in his master race concept or because they shared the same worldview; he worked with them despite his ideology because they were the enemy of the United States therefore his friend.
In the 80's we armed Saddam Hussein in his war against Iran. Our enemy (Iran) was Saddam's enemy therefore he was our friend.
Saddam's reason for giving the families of suicide bombers $25,000 isn't altruism and solidarity with Islam. It is solely to perpetuate the Israel/Palestinian problem, the festering sore that breeds Islamic hate for America a tool of Saddam and Osuma.
Today Osuma's enemy is Saddam's enemy therefore despite their vast ideological differences their common enemy makes them friends. Saddam will gladly arm Osuma and give him refuge given the opportunity if he hasn't already.
America has proven in Germany, Japan, and South Korea that armies and bombs annihilating evil tyrants = liberty, peace and prosperity. Hopefully the same prosperity will come to Afghanistan, the Balkans and Iraq via benevolent guidance from the USA.
An un-united America has emboldened an egocentric France, cowardly Germany and a stronger Saddam. A war that could have been over by now is going to start at the beginning of summer a needless delay that will cost us troops and moral.
Some in our country want to give Saddam the benefit of the doubt. If we are too ignorant, fearful, or too far into denial to protect our interest and security we will receive the security and safety we deserve as a reward for our vacillation, apathy and ignorance.

Yes, the collective "We" could all go down.
I have been giving it a lot of thought lately. I work with a bunch of anti-war liberals and they don't know who Nevill Chamberlin is. They don't recognize Alqueada's activities of the 90's (World Trade Center 93). They don't educate themselves about history but still figure they still should have an equal voice.
All of their ignorance is such proof that a Republic is so much better than a Domocracy. There is such wisdom in picking a representative to speak for you that is well versed on the issues. when we try to sell democracy to the world we should be selling the idea of a Republic instead.
I haven't been on the radio unless you just heard someone talking about something I wrote or about one of my websites.
