Knowing how to defend yourself is not moronic. Not knowing is. Recognizing a threat is not moronic, willfull blindness to it is. Showing weakness to a sworn enemy is. Appeasement is. Funny how the Dems are now talking tough on terrorism. Mind you, only if it originates in Afganistan.
Using the phrase "to win the peace" is political nonsense. You kick somebody's ass so bad that there is peace 'cause they're in no position to cause further harm, plain and simple.
Agree entirely. I find it laughable that even to this day, the Democrats want people to believe terrorism exists everywhere in the world except Iraq.
