Definitely not.

The worst offense the Liberals make is their tacit alliance with terrorists. In a letter from Al-Zarkawi to his followers, the master terrorist implored his followers to hang on just a little longer. Although their cause seemed hopeless against such overwhelming firepower and determination from the U.S., inevitably stupid, naive "anti-war" demonstrators would derail support for continued military support of the Iraqi government, and the insurgents would win by default.

Now, think about this: Liberals read the Al Zarkawi letter. The letter plainly states the only way the insurgents can win is if stupid people protest the war; otherwise, they will not be able to prevail. The only reason the insurgency can get new recruits is that our vacillation gives them hope. New terrorists are recruited because they realize that any month now, the naive Liberals will start cutting funding for the American troops.

It's absolutely inexplicable. How can Liberals be so stupid?

Why do you think there is such an increase in DOMESTIC violence in Iraq? It's because we've got the terrorists so completely on the run, the only thing they can do is random acts of violence. It's like the last gasps of a fish dying on a dock, just spastic action. They couldn't plan another 9-11, or even a Madrid train bombing. They are reduced to crappy little stunts like blowing up the bus that runs in front of their apartment building.

Here's another way of looking at the situation: Imagine you are dumped in the middle of the ocean, and there's no land in sight. You have no idea where you are, you're scared, disoriented, and after what seems like endless days of seemingly pointless, exhausting effort, you just give up, and the sea claims yet another body. There is no point in fighting it, you know you are going to drown anyway.

In the second scenario, someone dumps you in the ocean, but your tormentors tell you that fishing boats cruise those waters every Monday and Thursday. Now you have a target to live for. You gather all your strength and focus your energy. You know you can survive until help arrives.

Did any Liberals reading this realize this is exactly what they are doing for the benefit of the terrorists? By announcing a date they can circle on their grimy Jihadist calendar, you are giving them exactly the kind of hope they need to keep getting new recruits.

Yes, Liberal idiocy is life-threatening. Too bad it's directed at the wrong people.

My husband told me recently that we shouldn't set a date because it's going to take a while to finish everything. He said they are doing so much good but the ignorant media doesn't care, they want everyone to hate this war. My husband's in Iraq, and has been there twice before, he should know. So no, we shouldn't set a date.

Daniel F: We are fighting in Afghanistan. I'm not sure why you think we aren't. The media isn't reporting much about it because there isn't much bad going on in Afghanistan anymore. If it isn't bad, the media doesn't want to show it, for fear that it may make people realize that we are doing good in both Afghanistan and Iraq.

No we should not set a date.

If we set a date, the insurgents will sit back and wait for us to pull out then take over and all of this will have been for nothing. I believe we would be right back in Iraq and it could be worse.

Ask the Soldiers that have been there. Most of them would agree that we need to stay and finish what WE started.

Chris : Osama Bin Ladin Is in Afghanistan, not Iraq. That is where we should be fighting.

Yes, the US should just leave the middle east and stop trying to control people out there. The longer they stay the more innocent people die. If the US stays George Bush and Dinkus Cheney should be appointed ambassadors there after they leave office. They should stay there until the troops come home.

No. I think we need to stand firm and complete the mission. Find Osma Bin-Laden, help stabilize Iraq and put a stop to these Islamic fanatic terrorists...for good. GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS!

Daniel F: I understand that...was over there the first time. Getting Osma Bin-Laden is part of the mission, and part of the problem in Iraq now. But I respect your opinion.

no. i think the last thing that most of our troops want to do is leave before finishing what they started.

Yes but not publicly. That would give insurgents time to plan and master mind massive attacks at our weaker points and hurt the civilian pop much more.

NO !!

Why tell the Enemy what your doing. It just gives them a reason to kill more American before we leave.

Remember The war is ridding the world of terrorists One terrorist at a time..... Someday we will run out of them.
