A STRANGE PATRIOTISM Arnold Ahlert NEW YORK POST Opinion February 5, 2007 THE upcoming Senate resolution condemning the Bush administration's Iraq strategy is a perfect reflection of the American public's mindset. Like the Senate, the public's commitment to defending the United States from the scourge of radical Islam is "conditional." We "support" the troops - even as we're willing to officially inform them their mission is doomed to fail. Yet in the event of an "improbable success," a k a "victory," we - like our "courageous" senators - want them to know our misgivings were "non-binding." Who says patriotism is dead? * MIDDLE East scholar Daniel Pipes has articulated the difference between liberals and conservatives regarding terrorism: Liberals want everyone to "get along" and believe the war can be mitigated by multiculturalism. Conservatives want to "defeat a terrible enemy," a nihilistic barbarism. Which worldview would you bet on to keep America safe and free? nypost.com _opedcolumnists_arnold_ahlert.htm
