Understanding terrorism

[mrnoodle]

mari mari mari. Don't be taking quotes out of context. In the very next line, I said you might be able to find a post I made that was hyperbolic, but that the one in question wasn't it.

Also, the post you are referring to is obviously satirical in nature, riffing on what many of us perceive to be extreme leftist goofiness; it doesn't look, sound, or feel the same as "Bush is a lying Nazi pig who steals elections and kills babies for oil and I hope he DIES!!!!!11"

Monkey, dude. There are not more terrorists now than there were before Iraq. They're coming out of the woodwork from neighboring countries, using Iraq (instead of the US) as their holy battleground for Allah. If they have any political motivation at all, it is on the leadership level. There, they know that they have allies in the American media who are determined to weaken our resolve in order to nullify a presidency they oppose. They can almost taste a pullout, and they know if they can keep pecking away at the edges of our military, we'll leave and let them have their power back.

American liberalism doesn't see this. It depends on failure for its success, in everything from war to welfare to affirmative action. Only if something isn't going right does anyone listen to a liberal.
