Winds of War: AHHGGG!!! Enough is Enough!

From The Gathering Storm

Why do we let these pinheads get away with this illogical assessment of fighting a war?

• "Islamic extremists are exploiting the Iraqi conflict to recruit new anti-U.S. jihadists," CIA Director Porter J. Goss told the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.
  

• "Our policies in the Middle East fuel Islamic resentment," Vice Adm. Lowell E. Jacoby, director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, told the Senate panel.
  

Can you believe if this kind of inane analysis existed during WWII?

• "Nazi propagandists are exploiting the European conflict to recruit new SS soldiers," OSS Director Bill Donovan told the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.
  

• "Our policies in the Pacific fuel Japanese resentment," Adm. Chester W. Nimitz, US Pacific Fleet commander, told the Senate panel.

The stupidity of it all.

"The Sept. 11 commission report stated that our biggest failure was one of 'imagination.'" If we can't even understand that we are war, we can never begin to imagine the threat that is before us.
