If you think that 25% of Sunnis in the Islamic world are going to go to Iraq and fight then you are total ignorant about the Middle East and Arabs in general. Yes many hate us, but due to their cowardly nature a very, very, very tiny minority is willing to fight or blow themselves up.</p> In other words the 25% of Sunnis in the Islamic world will not be able to get over 40 thousands terrorists to fight us in Iraq, and we have already killed and captured 70% of them.

More chest beating bravado and ignorance.

Only a very, very, tiny minority is willing to fight ? They are pouring in by the thousands from one end of the Muslim world to the other. Many are even coming from Europe.

Wishful thinking and boastful ignorance do not help.

All the polls agree with this one.

As I've said elsewhere, the war is tipping. It can go over the edge of the jihadis launch a Tetlike offensive and show the world they are more than just a scattered bunch of killers

Gee walter cronkite, things slow up at Martha's Vineyard, or did the democrats get you out of retirement so you could relive your "glory" days of being a propaganda tool of thugs.

It is not wishful thinking nor boastful ignorance. You are just delusional if you think that these terrorists can muster more than 40 thousands murderers to fight us in Iraq even if they drain the terrorists swamps of the whole Islamic world.

You are committing the worst possible military sin. Substituting wishful thinking for a rational analysis of the enemy. That only leads to disaster.

Dane, back shilling for illegal aliens ?

Thank you for the info. It would not surprise a bit to see him as one of these few knee jerk phony conservatives who already surrendered in 2005 and made Hillary Clinton a President in 2008 and ask us not to fight her because she is invincible. No wonder why he wants us to surrender in Iraq and run away since he believes that we cannot win this war. This tiny defeatist crowd on FR are getting very vocal and very annoying.

Actually the wishful thing is on your part sammy. Thinking that Iraq can become Vietnam part II, ain't going to happen, no matter how much you wish so.

oh yeah sammy nice try to dodge that you are shilling for hillary and olsmobile ted, but no cigar.

All polls do not agree with this one.

A few days back the IBD poll showed around 60% wanting to maintain troops in Iraq and 70% feeling the Iraqi invasion had made the world safer.

Unklike this one, IBD was one of the most accurate polls in 2004; they nailed the election result exactly as I recall.

They are annoyed that Rove was right on target with his critique that they are basically terrorist sympathizers, thus the irrational squawking.

Your defeatist attitude and making the enemy invincible is what lead to disaster. Fortunately our President and our military do not share your defeatist attitude and that is why we are winning this war against the terrorists in Iraq, we will stay the course and will annihilate terrorism in Iraq and all over the world.

Go and preach your defeatism somewhere else. This great forum is for people who are willing to fight till the ultimate victory.

Actually, IMO, you are serving your usual pro-hillary feces.

Yeah, unfortunately once you make the decision to go to war, you can't just bail out and take it back when it takes longer than 6 months and people actually start to die.

We went into this as a nation, we need to get thru it as a nation. The Democrats and liberals don't offer any alternatives, just hollow rhetoric that only serves to aid the enemy.

Jveritas, the American people have had enough. They are not going to lose 5 Americans a day forever. Now we can either face facts or there will be hell to pay in 2006.

And don't be taken in so easily by the pseudo-patriotism of someone who wants to make America part of Mexico.
