From Reuters, via Michelle Malkin:

DUBAI (Reuters) - A man believed to be a top al Qaeda militant who escaped from a U.S. jail near Kabul was shown in a new videotape broadcast on Tuesday exhorting followers in Afghanistan to fight on until they attack the White House.

“Allah will not be pleased until we reach the rooftop of the White House,” Abu Yahya al-Libi was shown telling fighters in the tape aired by the Dubai-based Al-Arabiya television.

For all the terrorist apologists, who continue to insist, like Neville Chamberlain, that the terrorists just want us to leave the Middle East, and then they will stop wanting to destroy us.

Robert, did you see that disturbing comment by the British NATO general that “70% of Afghanis would change sides (and support the Taliban) in the next few months if their situation doesn’t improve.”

He is certainly welcome to his opinion.  Do you think the US should base its foreign policy on his opinions?  That is the question.  I’m sorry his comment disturbs you.  I guess that’s why you loaded your statement by using the adjective “disturbing”, right?  Cherry picking by the MSM to undermine US policy is nothing new.

If you don’t know by now, don’t mess with it.

It sounded to me like that commander was more just trying to scare the folks at home into sending him more troops and money.

Which, frankly, I woudn’t be opposed to.  I think we could use more troops in both Afghanistan and Iraq.  The problem is that if we send more troops in the media/Dems jump on that as evidence to suggest that we’re losing the war.

Which just demonstrates how hurtful the political games Dems are playing are to our foreign policy.

When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty.
