And then there was this:

Salameh's arrest led police to the apartment of Abdul Rahman Yasin in Jersey City, New Jersey, which Yasin was sharing with his mother, in the same building as Ramzi Yousef's apartment. Yasin was taken to the FBI's Newark field office in Newark, New Jersey, and was then released. The next day, he flew back to Iraq, via Amman, Jordan.

:lol:

What really illustrates the truth vacuum of the left is the whole despot relationship deal. Leftys all disparage the US for tolerating dictators of every bad flavor (usually when they are supplanting a worse socialist dictator), but in Hussein's case, they support playing nice with the dictator.

HW bush was CIA and he wanted to leave Hussein in power as regional hedgeman that we could control. Hell yes we could control Hussein, we have arms he wants and money for oil. This is such a sweet relationship, except it is predicated on the tolerance or support of pure evil. Hussein was pure evil; there is no other case. France was eroding the fence around Hussein, and I hope W opposed making any deals with the devil. All W did was resume hostilities when Hussein broke the cease fire. Sure he RUSHED in after 11 or 12 un resolutions. (The unprincipled left said rushed in, I'm lampooning the dumbastards).

I have a greater reservation towards force than most, and had real reservations about desert storm in the first place. That said, I have no tolerance for the revisionist history by the left, not even the ankle biting crap they post here.

As Obama just said a few days ago- its a lot easier starting a war than ending it....
And as I posted several years ago- many of the returning troops, including my son in law when he returned from his second tour, believed all they had done there/and had lost there would be for naught and that within a few years of withdrawl the whole country would be in civil war...

No matter how evil Saddam was- he kept Al Queada out because he wanted no one else to challenge his power.... Now Al Queada is taking up the leadership of what was formerly Saddam ruled Sunni's....
What obama forgot....it take two sides to end a war. :wink:

Excuse me, if you intend to win a war you break everything in sight and shoot. Every sob that looks at you. When you are done there ain't no worries about an ending. The ending is on your terms ]

The only thing dumber than sending troops to Iraq would be doing it again.

Obama: U.S. Military Help Likely in Iraq

“I don’t rule out anything, because we do have a stake in making sure that these jihadists are not getting a permanent foothold in Iraq, or Syria, for that matter,” he said. “I think it’s fair to say that in our consultations with the Iraqis, there will be some short-term, immediate things that need to be done militarily, and our national security team is looking at all the options.”

Obama and the liberals need not fret about US going and finishing the job that obama screwed up....

Obama ponders as Iran sends troops to Iraq

Barack Obama was under mounting pressure to send military help to Iraq as Iranian forces were reported to have joined Baghdad’s government to quell an al-Qaeda-inspired uprising.

A defensive president, accused by Republicans of squandering the security gains won in Iraq by US forces, insisted that he was looking at “all the options” to prevent the country unravelling.

But even as he spoke, Iran seemed poised to steal the initiative by sending troops to fight what its president, Hassan Rouhani, described as the “terrorist group that is acting savagely” in Iraq.

Reports emerged that two battalions of Iran’s feared Revolutionary Guards were already in the country, where the government’s forces have shown little stomach for combat. Iran’s willingness to put troops on the front line will give it a strategic advantage in Iraq over America, which at most would offer only air strikes. The US State Department last night ruled out “boots on the ground”.

who know maybe the Iranians will clean up Obama's red line mess is Syria as well..



by the way... has any body taken a tally of the wars obama started..

Egypt

Libya

Ukraine

Syria.. to name a few.
