Who's Afraid Of '24'? Investors Business Daily ^ \| 1/19/2007 investors.com The anti-war left hates the Bush administration with such a passion it refuses to recognize how dangerous our enemies in the Muslim world are.

Even their own favorite analysts warn that al-Qaida is preparing to carry out nuclear terrorism here. One of them, Michael Scheuer, works for CBS News. The former head of the CIA's Osama bin Laden unit penned a book, "Imperial Hubris," that slams Bush over Iraq. He writes columns for such venues as AntiWar.com.
