KERRY FLIP-FLOPPED ON TORA BORA
He used to have a realistic appreciation of the difficulties of operating in those mountains and of how hard it is to hunt down one man. Here is what he said on CNN's “Late Edition” on January 20, 2002:
"The bottom line is that the closest we came was in Tora Bora. I do think some people have asked some questions about how that particular component of the mission sort of played out. But the fact is that it is a difficult place. He is elusive.
I think they are doing the maximum amount right now possible to try to track him down. And it is an extraordinarily hard thing for him to hide somewhere. I mean, over a period of time, I think, he is in trouble."
I actually voted for John Kerry-before I voted against him!!!!!
Comparing the Iraq war to invading Mexico after Pearl Harbor is like comparing apples and pyramids. Although Mexico remained neutral in the months following the Pearl Harbor attack, it did not tilt toward the Axis and, in fact, entered the war on the side of the Allies in May, 1942. Saddam Hussein's Iraq, on the other hand, has for years been shooting missiles at our pilots, harboring terrorists, and trying to subvert our allies.
Perhaps a better World War II analogy to the Iraq war would be our invasion of French Morocco in 1942 or our bombing raids against targets in Hungary and Belgium. While these countries were ostensibly neutral, they were, in fact, helping the enemy.
