Of course not, but you will pretend you do....But go ahead, why don't you explain how handing over Iraq and Saudi Arabia to Al Qaeda will make us all safer. I'm all ears....you just sneer at everything realating to the campaign and repeat "cost-benefit" as if nobody else had ever thought of the term... " Let's see, you've denigrated every opinion that failed to fit into your one way, myopic view of the "campaign," yet over time those same opinions have been proven to have been accurate over and over again. Instead of cherry picking small pieces of posts so that you can call the authors whatever the latest term is for "hate America defeatists," why don't you do yourself a favor and tabulate up all the ACCURATE past opinions you've offered on the course of the "campaign" in Iraq. I mean really, Nadine, what is it about your constant stream of not just wrong but frigging-loopy-wrong projections that makes you feel empowered to dismiss the opinions of the many on this thread whose projections have proven to be prescient with respect to the course of the conflict in Iraq? So that's it; you list the predictions you've made that were proven out in reality and I'll tell you why "most places on earth will not be safer UNTIL the Middle East has been surrendered to Sunni and Shiite Islamist extremism." (Note I DIDN'T say "handing over Iraq and Saudi Arabia to Al Qaeda will make us all safer," and I assume you knew that when you made your false allegation.) Using your term, and one by the way that invites an image of George Bush on the cover or Mad Magazine, "I'm all ears." Ed
