Sen Kennedy Calls for Defeat in Iraq

In the Armed Services Committee today, Sen. Kennedy stated: that the Bush Administration has no plan for the Iraq war; accused Sec. of Defense Rumsfeld of incompetence; and called for his resignation. Kennedy followed up in the Senate reiterating all he said in the Armed Services Committee and then called for an “honorable” conclusion to the Iraq situation.

In essence, Kennedy’s “honorable” ending of the U.S. involvement is a call for defeat. Why, because there is no such thing as an “honorable” settlement that can be made with Islamo-fascism. Islamo-fascists are not going to negotiate a cessation of hostilities. In truth, they will never be completely defeated until the Muslim populations no longer can stomach the fundamentalist agenda. Our job is to stay in Iraq until Iraqi forces can stand on their own feet.

Sen. Kennedy, a senior leftist Democratic Party leader, issued a call for defeat. As usual, Sen. Kennedy sounds like a loser, not a leader. We are in a war of which we did not strike the first blow. That war is against Islamo-fascism, and Iraq is but one factor in the war. It is shameful to hear the words of Sen. Kennedy in the Senate, especially in a time of war. Let it be known that Sen. Kennedy does not speak for the men & women in our military nor many of our fellow countrymen. In this day and time, if you are not for victory, you are for defeat.
