The enemy is infiltrating this country. They surely have recruited, planted, bribed, and/or blackmailed a number of our politicians. Why else the cry for retaining illegals, even violent gangs, and providing them with special perks?
Instead of having our soldiers dying in large numbers in Iraq, they should be protecting our borders and rounding up and deporting illegal aliens.
But...Bush's rationale for establishing a Middle East democracy is because they're brainwashed from the cradle on: no life, no money, no jobs, no hope, no literacy, nothing. They're told that it's all America's fault. The only way to stop these crackpots is to show them where they live and plot that they can have a decent life. Obviously, if this gamble falls short, it will be tragic beyond belief because we will have to kill them en masse in situ. Bye bye Mecca.
