Sorry I’ve not been posting much this week. I seem to have aggravated a repetitive stress injury lately, and that has limited my typing.
In any case, I wanted to take this opportunity today to do something I rarely do: cite Bill O’Reilly. Specifically, his “talking points” memo from today’s show:
“The Taliban took credit for the attack [on the base in Afghanistan at which Vice President Cheney was staying]. And that should remind everybody that the global war on terror is still underway. And things are not going well.
There are a few key reasons for this. First, most nations are sitting out the war on terror, and a good many of them are rooting against the USA and our allies, if you can believe it. Muslim killers know they can count on people like Vladimir Putin, Jacques Chirac, and the government of Spain to allow them to kill at will.
Right now, the Taliban is taking advantage of Pakistan’s unwillingness to shut them down. The Taliban killers have a sanctuary in that country. And President Musharraf is basically hiding under his desk.
The terrorists also understand that the far left in America doesn’t want to fight the war on terror and will frequently undermine it. We’re talking about organizations like the ACLU, far left Internet sites, and some mainstream media outlets.
Also, Iraq has clearly been a setback in the terror war, but not for the reasons the far left wants you to believe.”
He goes on to say that the reason the Iraq War is going poorly is because decades of violence and tyranny have left the Iraqis more interested in getting revenge on each other than it building a country.
