John Kerry, winner of the Iowa caucus, takes this position:
The war on terror is less of a military operation and far more of an intelligence-gathering and law-enforcement operation. And we deserve presidential leadership that knows that and knows how to make America safer, and I will do that.
He pre-emptively removes the military from protecting the United States against terrorism. Can anyone think that the 70% reduction in Al Qaida could have been achieved if it were pursued with our military taken out of the picture?
Thank the left for this policy: pre-emptive surrender.
“The Al Qaida of the 9/11 period is under catastrophic stress,” State Department counter-terrorism coordinator Cofer Black said. “They are being hunted down, their days are numbered.”Black’s assertion, made in an interview with the London-based British Broadcasting Corp. on Thursday, is based on U.S. intelligence community estimates that about 70 percent of Al Qaida has been neutralized, officials said.
Let’s hear the left tell us about how this doesn’t make the U.S. any safer.
When the left claims that achievements like this don’t help us… aren’t they admitting that if they were in power, these achievements wouldn’t have happened?
