This just in from John Kerry:

The Cod War between Britain and Iceland in the seventies.

True. Most "trade wars" are fairly bloodless and relatively brief. I don't know about "lovely" or "drenched in moral rectitude,"though, uless LS has unusual tastes. Usually they strike me as more like, crass and drenched in sanctimonious horseshit.

 

[BreeCarter]

Translation: rather than reading his mind, they took it how he said it.

Damn it, I hate it when words mean things.

that's funny, because i read what he said and understood what he meant.

You have to understand, not everyone here reads at the same grade level.

 

[Plasmaball]

*Chuckle*

Noone seems to know what the joke was....... even Hillary took him at his words.

Actually, Hillary's comment may have ended Kerry's chances in '08 (if he even had a chance)

Wow you really are just a low level wanna be Ish huh?

how about just letting go of a stupid story that means nothing.

 

[Kandi]

Well truthfully, not tht we'd want THAT to get in the way, he never said anything about the troops. Desperate Republicans added that twist.

 

[busybody..]

Oh really?

then why did he offer an

"apology" to the troops?

 

[busybody..]

The DumoCRAPS get a key endorsement

FROM TERRORISTS

What does THAT tell you?


FROM WND'S JERUSALEM BUREAU
Mideast terror leaders
to U.S.: Vote Democrat
Withdrawal from Iraq would embolden
jihadists to destroy Israel, America

JERUSALEM – Everybody has an opinion about next Tuesday's midterm congressional election in the U.S. – including senior terrorist leaders interviewed by WND who say they hope Americans sweep the Democrats into power because of the party's position on withdrawing from Iraq, a move, as they see it, that ensures victory for the worldwide Islamic resistance.

The terrorists told WorldNetDaily an electoral win for the Democrats would prove to them Americans are "tired."

They rejected statements from some prominent Democrats in the U.S. that a withdrawal from Iraq would end the insurgency, explaining an evacuation would prove resistance works and would compel jihadists to continue fighting until America is destroyed.

They said a withdrawal would also embolden their own terror groups to enhance "resistance" against Israel.

"Of course Americans should vote Democrat," Jihad Jaara, a senior member of the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades terror group and the infamous leader of the 2002 siege of Bethlehem's Church of the Nativity, told WND.

(Story continues below)


"This is why American Muslims will support the Democrats, because there is an atmosphere in America that encourages those who want to withdraw from Iraq. It is time that the American people support those who want to take them out of this Iraqi mud," said Jaara, speaking to WND from exile in Ireland, where he was sent as part of an internationally brokered deal that ended the church siege.

Jaara was the chief in Bethlehem of the Brigades, the declared "military wing" of Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah party.

Together with the Islamic Jihad terror group, the Brigades has taken responsibility for every suicide bombing inside Israel the past two years, including an attack in Tel Aviv in April that killed American teenager Daniel Wultz and nine Israelis.

Muhammad Saadi, a senior leader of Islamic Jihad in the northern West Bank town of Jenin, said the Democrats' talk of withdrawal from Iraq makes him feel "proud."

"As Arabs and Muslims we feel proud of this talk," he told WND. "Very proud from the great successes of the Iraqi resistance. This success that brought the big superpower of the world to discuss a possible withdrawal."

Abu Abdullah, a leader of Hamas' military wing in the Gaza Strip, said the policy of withdrawal "proves the strategy of the resistance is the right strategy against the occupation."

"We warned the Americans that this will be their end in Iraq," said Abu Abdullah, considered one of the most important operational members of Hamas' Izzedine al-Qassam Martyrs Brigades, Hamas' declared "resistance" department. "They did not succeed in stealing Iraq's oil, at least not at a level that covers their huge expenses. They did not bring stability. Their agents in the [Iraqi] regime seem to have no chance to survive if the Americans withdraw."

Abu Ayman, an Islamic Jihad leader in Jenin, said he is "emboldened" by those in America who compare the war in Iraq to Vietnam.

"[The mujahedeen fighters] brought the Americans to speak for the first time seriously and sincerely that Iraq is becoming a new Vietnam and that they should fix a schedule for their withdrawal from Iraq," boasted Abu Ayman.

The terror leaders spoke as the debate regarding the future of America's war in Iraq has perhaps become the central theme of midterm elections, with most Democrats urging a timetable for withdrawal and Republicans mostly advocating staying the course in Iraq.

President Bush has even said he would send more troops if Gen. George Casey, the top U.S. commander in Baghdad, said they are needed to stabilize the region

The debate became especially poignant following remarks by Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., the 2004 presidential candidate who voted in support of the war in Iraq. Earlier this week he intimated American troops are uneducated, and it is the uneducated who "get stuck in Iraq."

Kerry, under intense pressure from fellow Democrats, now says his remarks were a "botched joke."

Terror leaders reject Nancy Pelosi's comments on Iraqi insurgency

Many Democratic politicians and some from the Republican Party have stated a withdrawal from Iraq would end the insurgency there.

In a recent interview with CBS's "60 Minutes," House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, stated, "The jihadists (are) in Iraq. But that doesn't mean we stay there. They'll stay there as long as we're there."

Pelosi would become House speaker if the Democrats win the majority of seats in next week's elections.

WND read Pelosi's remarks to the terror leaders, who unanimously rejected her contention an American withdrawal would end the insurgency.

Islamic Jihad's Saadi, laughing, stated, "There is no chance that the resistance will stop."

He said an American withdrawal from Iraq would "prove the resistance is the most important tool and that this tool works. The victory of the Iraqi revolution will mark an important step in the history of the region and in the attitude regarding the United States."

Jihad Jaara said an American withdrawal would "mark the beginning of the collapse of this tyrant empire (America)."

"Therefore, a victory in Iraq would be a greater defeat for America than in Vietnam."

Jaara said vacating Iraq would also "reinforce Palestinian resistance organizations, especially from the moral point of view. But we also learn from these (insurgency) movements militarily. We look and learn from them."

Hamas' Abu Abdullah argued a withdrawal from Iraq would "convince those among the Palestinians who still have doubts in the efficiency of the resistance."

"The victory of the resistance in Iraq would prove once more that when the will and the faith are applied victory is not only a slogan. We saw that in Lebanon (during Israel's confrontation against Hezbollah there in July and August); we saw it in Gaza (after Israel withdrew from the territory last summer) and we will see it everywhere there is occupation," Abdullah said.

While the terror leaders each independently compelled American citizens to vote for Democratic candidates, not all believed the Democrats would actually carry out a withdrawal from Iraq.

Saadi stated, "Unfortunately I think those who are speaking about a withdrawal will not do so when they are in power and these promises will remain electoral slogans. It is not enough to withdraw from Iraq. They must withdraw from Afghanistan and from every Arab and Muslim land they occupy or have bases."

He called both Democrats and Republicans "agents of the Zionist lobby in the U.S."

Abu Abdullah commented once Democrats are in power "the question is whether such a courageous leadership can [withdraw]. I am afraid that even after the American people will elect those who promise to leave Iraq, the U.S. will not do so. I tell the American people vote for withdrawal. Abandon Israel if you want to save America. Now will this Happen? I do not believe it."

Still Jihad Jaara said the alternative is better than Bush's party.

"Bush is a sick person, an alcoholic person that has no control of what is going on around him. He calls to send more troops but will very soon get to the conviction that the violence and terror that his war machine is using in Iraq will never impose policies and political regimes in the Arab world."

BB, you're only telling us the obvious. If I were a terrorist, I'd be rooting for the Dems too.

Not me. I'd be rooting for another 600,000 dead Iraqi civilians, and the continued squandering of the world's good will that we had in late September 2001. I'd be rooting for most of Europe to keep thinking the US sucks. I certainly wouldn't be rooting for Bill Clinton's (arguably the most popular US president outside the US of the past five) party to be back in power, with the ability to call on him for high-level diplomacy and actual coalition building. And I sure as hell wouldn't want the most arrogant and divisive (internationally) administration in modern times to be swept out of office, replaced by reasonable and competent human beings.

*chuckle* It still amazes me that anyone in their right mind would judge the effectiveness of a president by their popularity in other countries. Our most historically significant presidents were generally reviled by the rest of the world.

I see you've fallen into spouting figures you can't support. Must be spending a lot of time at MoveOn.org, huh Perg?

Name one major war that the US has won by going it alone?

What? Assmeal can't say anything? Oh yeah, you're still looking for that post that substantiates your shithead claim that I prefer increasing welfare over putting people to work. Now shut the fuck up and roll over for me, Assmeal.

In addition to this

The "world had good will to us after 9/11" is a myth!

who would YOU have liked to see with us in Iraq

I've never even looked at moveon.org.

That's a difference in perspective, isn't it? There are some people for whom the fitness of the US is the highest good. There are some for whom the fitness of the human race is a higher good. There are some who believe that if you have to live in a world, you might as well get along with the neighbors. There are some who prefer to live in a tower, aremd to the teeth, and not look past the borders.

I don't recall saying that was how I judged the effectiveness of a president. I was making a specific point about the terrorist's perspective on the president. Don't put words in my mouth.

EXACTLY

Many cite the French paper headline

"We are all Americans now" as a sign that the world was with us

Yet

The ACTUAL body of the EDITORIAL is never mentioned

Had it actually been mentioned, the MYTH would have been EXPOSED instantly!

Of course you need to say that. It furthers your agenda of power for republicans, the underpinning of everything you say or do, except when you ask for pics from chicks. "My party right or wrong."

 

[busybody..]

That's a damned good question.

name ONE war the US actually fought ALONE

By alone, I mean ALONE as opposed to what YOU mean ALONE

 

[busybody..]

Of course you need to say that. It furthers your agenda of power for republicans, the underpinning of everything you say or do, except when you ask for pics from chicks. "My party right or wrong."

show me WHAT good will was manifested to us................I dont consider lighting candles good will

and show me WHERE said GOOD WILL was manifested

 

[Ishmael]

That's a damned good question.

Tell the fucking idiot the 'Civil War."

The Spanish-American war wasn't small potatos either.

who would YOU have liked to see with us in Iraq

and why would THEY have helped us more by being there?

I wasn't talking about Iraq. I was talking about wiping out terrorists everywhere. We've posted about this so many times, I can't believe you don't have my pov memorised already.

Musharrif (sp?) was on the Daily Show. Stewart asks him, if there were an election in Pakistan between GWB and OBL, who would win? Musharrif says, it would be close. A true coalition, accomplished by being seen as a reasonable human being and some diplomacy, might tip the balance in Pakistan and get us some cooperation. Think about it.
