"In regards to the dead-enders in Iraq, the point is not why they fought originally but how long they will fight being given false hope that America will turn tail and run if they just kill a few more Americans and the Cindy Sheehans "tip" America into declaring defeat."
The real problem is that from the terrorists' perspective, it isn't false hope. Bin Laden has always told them the U.S. is corrupt and weak, and eventually will lose the will to oppose the terrorists. And the terrorists already have the example of John Kerry, Ted Kennedy and others who actively sabotaged our efforts in Vietnam. These same people along with their allies in the mainstream media are still running around supporting people like Sheehan.
I'm sure OBL has a big smile on his face about all this.

Well, when I say "false hope", I mean hope that will ultimately prove false in the end. I believe that America will stay the course.
As far as the Iraqi dead-enders are concerned, any hope they have is "true" from their perspective. And, when that Iraqi dead-ender's hope is dying, the liberal news media's efforts to undermine the morale of the American Home Front breathes new life into that hope and gives him the encouragement to hang on just one more month and to try to kill just a few more Americans.
