Each time the United States starts to kill and maim large numbers of civilians, and gory images are blasted to living rooms all around the world, the Islamists are appealing to the conscience of every person on the planet. Once the US does the killing, rape, pillage, murder, and looting, they [Islamists] will have won the hearts and minds of the people. Guess what, Spengler: it looks like it is working and working very well.
. . .

America, as Osama bin Laden taunted this week, lost in Vietnam. But it was not military setbacks, but the horrific images of Vietnamese civilians burned by napalm, that lost the war.

Hi Hawk,

Good point.

How many years has it been we've stationed troops in Germany and Japan - almost 60!

How many Police die daily in the USA due to street violence - I'd dare to say more than soldiers in Iraq.

But these comparisons of the homeland are never made by the media!

I believe we are doing great good, in an area that has been sorely lacking of good - conversely many powerful and evil people are in a losing position of power and are violently retaliating.

We as a country need to be proud and stop the second guessing.

It really is nothing but the dirtiest game in town -politics.

For the good we are doing we should stop the second guessing and build a strong energy exporting GIANT that features: wealth, freedom, and democracy - worthy of support and right doing - you bet!

JMHO

Bob
