Nancy Pelosi Gets Results

I do hope you get the sarcasm in the title, because I’m talking about her trip to Syria, which we wrote about last year. As you may recall, ”Damascus Nancy” made that trip to prove a point to President Bush about the need to “talk” to our enemies, in this case Bashir Assad. Not only did she falsely say that Israel was willing to “negotiate peace”, she also made this statement.
<<< ”We came in friendship, hope, and determined that the road to Damascus is a road to peace.” >>>
Yeah, because we all knew how much Syria was interested in peace. Well, yesterday gave us a stark reminder as to just how interested the Syrians are in “peace”.
It wasn’t anything the Syrians “did”. Rather it’s what the Israeli’s appeared to have done - sending terrorist Imad Mughniyah to “sleep with virgins”. This is a man who, before Osama Bin Laden, was one of the most wanted terrorists, with his bloody hands all over the killing of our Marines in Lebanon way back in 1983, the killing of a CIA operative, hijackings, the Khobar Towers bombings helping Hezbollah destabilize Lebanon, and having ties to Al Queda in Iraq.
Whoever did it, the world’s a better place without him in it.
But the most telling thing about the assassination was where it occurred - in Damascus where he reportedly had been meeting with Syrian officials.
Make no mistake - if Syria was really serious about helping us and being our “friend” and living in “peace”, they would have turned this guy over to us (or killed him themselves) rather than offering him aid and comfort, and according to many reports, using him to do their work for them.
So much for “peace”.
But if Barack Obama is elected President, you will get more of the same “talking” to our enemies, who while they talk to your face, are plotting to stab you in the back the minute you’re not looking.
If I’m John McCain I’m starting to hammer Obama now on his whole “talking to our enemies” schtick, just to remind everyone that it would be wasted anklebitingpundits.com |
