"The problem is even though we must, there is a chance we won't."

The only reason we will fail is because of the enemy within.

North Vietnam was defeated. They were ready to seriously negotiate a settlement. But then, our John Kerrys and Jane Fondas gave them hope and the strength to persevere. This is NOT an opinion, it is the words of General Giap, commander of the North Vietnamese forces.

The Kerrys and Fondas are trying to relive their heyday. They do not understand that if the Islamic tide that we are in a death struggle with (not 'terrorists', Islamists) they will be the ones at most risk.

Radical Islam has said, again and again, they intend to destroy us and kill those who won't convert. They hate with a fanatical passion the hedonism that the likes of the Hollywood elites promote. They are on a holy mission from their god to destroy us.

I find it funny that those who are the main target of our enemy, (the 'free press included') our dedicated, motivated, persistent enemy, those are the very ones biting our military in the ass.

They are trying to slam the only ones who stand between them and damnation.

For the life of me, I cannot understand the mindset.

There is a major difference between Viet Nam and Iraq. When the Jane Fonda's and John Kerry's turned America against the war, and even they didn't do that single handedly, but it was an ongoing effort from many camps including the supporters of that war, they also turned the American people against the military. That hasn't happened in this campaign. The support for the military is as strong now as it was when we first went in. I just recently traveled and as I was went from airport to airport, I was so gratified to see how well our military folks were treated and honored by the average American as they moved through the concourses. That wasn't the case in Viet Nam.

And while they hate the radical hedonism that Hollywood promotes, those who hate that aspect of our culture also hate those of us who believe and live our lives for Christ. There's no difference in their eyes.

I too cannot understand the terrorist mindset. I don't believe you can understand insanity.
