Worthwhile sucrifices
We had been asked to make sacrifices because of the war. We had to give up our liberties as a necessary measure to defeat the fundamentalist terrorism. We were supposed to accept torture as a valid tool to defeat our enemies. And we were called to send the American army to shape the Middle East as a western liberal democracy, convinced that the illusion of building democracy with bayonet is not only a must for our national security, and the security of the western world, but also a real possibility.
And now, years into the war, the successful results are obvious:
Al-Qaida is “considerably operationally stronger than a year ago” and has “regrouped to an extent not seen since 2001,” a counterterrorism official told The Associated Press, paraphrasing an intelligence report’s conclusions.
It is no surprising that the President insisting on keep pursuing the same strategy, after all if he will want hard enough it will have to work…
