Eisboch 100% true, but did you think 6 years later he would still be out and about? I would argue *that* is Bush's fault. What would you have done differently to capture OBL? Don't tell me how Bush screwed it up and that the Democrats would have done it better. What actions would you Thunder have taken to track down OBL and capture or kill him? Two things I can think of right off the top of my head, I wouldn't of been sidetracked by invading Iraq, or do you actually think there were WMD? Secondly, I would have kept the man who murdered 3000 Americans a priority. "I don't know where bin Laden is. I have no idea and really don't care. It's not that important. It's not our priority." - G.W. Bush, 3/13/02 "I am truly not that concerned about him." - G.W. Bush, repsonding to a question about bin Laden's whereabouts, 3/13/02 (The New American, 4/8/02) Perhaps, you think differently, but I think the strongest statement that can be make in this "War on Terror" is to track down those that attacked us. Have you ever considered that bin Laden, as an individual, is *not* important. What is important is the world-wide, religiously based uprising against anything or anybody not believing in fundamental Islam. Bin Laden may be a vocal centerpiece and symbol, but he by himself is not that important. It would be good to get him for symbolic reasons, but if bin Laden was discovered dead tomorrow, nothing much would change. Bush may actually have his eye on the ball. It's the public that may be looking for a simplistic solution. If we kill OBL he becomes a martyr and is good for recruitment, for al-qiada. As it is now we have OBL looking over his shoulder every few minutes. Any time he hears and airplane or helicopter he has to run to a new hiding place. How powerful a had of a terrorist organization can you be when you are scurrying around like a rat from hiding place to hiding place? It would be better if OBL died of some natural cause not in the struggle for Islamic supremacy. |
