From Winning to Losing

"How did we go from winning the war in Iraq to losing overnight? Was this decided by the same committee that changed 'Peking' to 'Beijing'?" The liberals like to maintain that we're "losing" in Iraq because we haven't yet gotten a handle on the former Saddam loyalists who are killing not only us and the Jews, but each other. Actually, we WON the war in Iraq in the first week when Saddam was ousted and made to hide in a hole in the ground to keep from being killed. That was our main goal in Iraq: to get rid of Saddam as a "power" and remove at least one major "sanctuary" for terrorists in the Middle East. The other goal would take more time because most denizens of the Middle East just don't understand a representative government and are easily swayed by the "usual suspects," their Imams, to whose lies they've been listening for eons. Yes, the killing continues in Iraq. Mostly because the killers are much harder to identify and eliminate than in a "standard war." They don't attack "hardened" military targets. They instead attack shopping centers where their victims are not prepared to fight back and where their attacks are completely unsuspected. All they care about is killing. They don't care who they kill, as long as they are killing. Their target base is large, because it is EVERYBODY who does not believe the same way they do. (Syndicated columnist Ann Coulter,)
