OT--9 point jump in number of Americans who now believe US is winning the War on Terror.
December 2, 2005--Confidence in the War on Terror is up sharply compared to
a month ago. Forty-eight percent (48%) Americans now believe the U.S. and its Allies are winning. That's up nine points from 39% a month ago and represents the highest level of confidence measured in 2005. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (They must have polled Joe Lieberman's household). As goes Iraq, so goes Bush's poll numbers. |

According to your idiot president, more than 80% of those fighting us in Iraq are not terrorists, but locals, who want us the hell out of their country. He never used those numbers. a.. Terrorists affiliated with or inspired by Al Qaida make up the smallest enemy group but are the most lethal and pose the most immediate threat because (1) they are responsible for the most dramatic atrocities, which kill the most people and function as a recruiting tool for further terrorism and (2) they espouse the extreme goals of Osama Bin Laden -- chaos in Iraq which will allow them to establish a base for toppling Iraq's neighbors and launching attacks outside the region and against the U.S. homeland. a.. The terrorists have identified Iraq as central to their global aspirations. For that reason, terrorists and extremists from all parts of the Middle East and North Africa have found their way to Iraq and made common cause with indigenous religious extremists and former members of Saddam's regime. This group cannot be won over and must be defeated -- killed or captured -- through sustained counterterrorism operations. |

"Lord Reginald Smithers" Ask me about my driveway leading up to my manor. wrote in message ... Harry, Have you noticed even the Dem's don't want to set a timetable to pull out of Iraq. "Kerry drones that we need to "set benchmarks" for the "transfer of authority." Actually, the administration's been doing that for two years -- setting dates for the return of sovereignty, for electing a national assembly, for approving a constitution, etc, and meeting all of them. And all during those same two years Kerry and his fellow Democrats have huffed that these dates are far too premature, the Iraqis aren't in a position to take over, hold an election, whatever. The Defeaticrats were against the benchmarks before they were for them. These sad hollow men may yet get their way -- which is to say they may succeed in persuading the American people that a remarkable victory in the Middle East is in fact a humiliating defeat. It would be an incredible achievement. Peter Worthington, the Canadian columnist and veteran of World War II and Korea, likes to say that there's no such thing as an unpopular won war. The Democrat-media alliance are determined to make Iraq an exception to that rule. In a week's time, Iraqis will participate in the most open political contest in the history of the Middle East. They're building the freest society in the region, and the only truly federal system. In three-quarters of the country, life has never been better. There's an economic boom in the Shia south and a tourist boom in the Kurdish north, and, while the only thing going boom in the Sunni Triangle are the suicide bombers, there were fewer of those in November than in the previous seven months. Meanwhile, Iraq's experiment in Arab liberty has had ripple effects beyond its borders, pushing the Syrians most of the way out of Lebanon, and in Syria itself significantly weakening Baby Assad's regime. Saad Eddin Ibrahim, who's spent years as a beleaguered democracy advocate in Egypt, told the Washington Post's Jim Hoagland the other day that, although he'd opposed the Anglo-American invasion of Iraq, he had to admit it had "unfrozen the Middle East, just as Napoleon's 1798 expedition did. Elections in Iraq force the theocrats and autocrats to put democracy on the agenda, even if only to fight against us. Look, neither Napoleon nor President Bush could impregnate the region with political change. But they were able to be the midwives." The Egyptians get it, so do the Iraqis, the Lebanese, the Jordanians and the Syrians. The choice is never between a risky action and the status quo -- i.e., leaving Saddam in power, U.N. sanctions, U.S. forces sitting on his borders. The stability fetishists in the State Department and the European Union fail to understand that there is no status quo: things are always moving in some direction and, if you leave a dictator and his psychotic sons in business, and his Oil-for-Food scam up and running, and his nuclear R&D teams in places, chances are they're moving in his direction. Toppling Saddam was worth doing in and of itself. Toppling Saddam and trying to "midwife" (in Ibrahim's word) a free society would be worth doing even if it failed. But, as it happens, I don't believe it will fail, not just because of Bush but because enough Iraqis -- Shia, Kurds and even significant numbers of Sunnis -- are determined not to let it fail." http://www.suntimes.com/output/steyn...t-steyn04.html "Harry Krause" wrote in message ...

NOYB, you never answered my question. Terrorist or Freedom Fighter???? I answered your question...but perhaps the answer was a little bit too subtle for your liking. The folks who are doing most of the killing of US soldiers and Iraqis are terrorists. They are foreign-born, and have come to Iraq to conduct terrorist activities against the US, and anybody who supports the US. I was born in the US. If I were trying to kill soldiers and blow up military equipment from an invading country, I'd be a "freedom fighter". However, if I were using roadside bombs to indescriminately kill American citizens, American police and security forces, American government offices, American hotels, and the forces of the invading army, I'd be a terrorist. |

If they're solely targeting US troops, then call them the "resistance" movement...or "freedom fighters" if that pleases you more. But the majority of the indiscriminate bombings and killings over there are being conducted by terrorists...most of whom are foreign-born. B.S. to the "foreign-born." Most of them are Iraqis. Prove otherwise, without citing anyone in anyway connected to the lying Bush misadministration, or anyone who reports to it. Who would you consider a reputable source to substantiate my claim? By adding in the words "anyone who reports to it (the Bush administration)", you have just ruled out every member of our armed forces. So the only other people with eyes and ears on the ground in Iraq are the newly elected Iraqi officials. Would you like to hear Prime Minister al-Jafari's take on the question about who's doing the killing? NOYB, every source I have come up with cite the numbers of foreign insurgents to be 10% or less of the insurgency. http://www.csmonitor.com/2005/0923/dailyUpdate.html http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/4268904.stm Darn. I was so hoping Noyb would find some resources on his own that weren't connected to Presidummy. We're not arguing about how many members of the resistance movement are foreign born. We're arguing about *who* is doing most of the indiscriminate killing via IED attacks. |

The number of foreign terrorists isn't what is being discussed here. We're talking about who is doing most of the killing. I repeated the opinion of the Bush administration, US military leaders, and Iraq's government that the majority of the indiscriminate bombings and killings over there are being conducted by terrorists...most of whom are foreign-born. I have read that most of the *suicide* bombings are foreign born, but I haven't read that most of the indiscriminate bombers are foreign. |

So then: "Who would you consider a reputable source to substantiate my claim?" You puzzle it out, and come back when you have some legitimate data. In other words, "I know your claim is true, but I don't want to see the proof." -- John H MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Harry,
I know you didn't ask my opinion, but in my humble opinion you are incorrect in your assumption. "Harry Krause" wrote in message ...

And you think the situation in Iraq is improving? Absolutely. Ditto. And, anyone who would open their eyes to something other than NBC, CNN, et al, would also know so. That's great news, John. Seeing your news sources are so much better than ours, perhaps you wouldn't mind answering a few questions for the rest of us. What's the current status on electricity? Sewage? Water? What's the current unemployment rate in Iraq? What percentage of the schools are open? What about hospitals? Now that the situation is improving, I guess we can stop spending money with the Lincoln Group. http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald...n/13333175.htm Watch *all* the news and reach your own conclusions. -- John H What John is saying here is, he doesn't know and he doesn't care. -- You were right, it's all abut character.
