My enemy is your enemy therefore you are my friend. That is why we allied with Stalin our ideological enemy in 1939 and gave him billions of dollars of munitions during WW2.

Hitler partnered with the Japanese not because he included Asians in his master race concept or because they shared the same worldview; he worked with them despite his ideology because they were the enemy of the United States therefore his friend.

In the 80's we armed Saddam Hussein in his war against Iran. Our enemy (Iran) was Saddam's enemy therefore he was our friend.

Saddam's reason for giving the families of suicide bombers $25,000 isn't altruism and solidarity with Islam. It is solely to perpetuate the Israel/Palestinian problem, the festering sore that breeds Islamic hate for America a tool of Saddam and Osuma.

Today Osuma's enemy is Saddam's enemy therefore despite their vast ideological differences their common enemy makes them friends. Saddam will gladly arm Osuma and give him refuge given the opportunity if he hasn't already.

America has proven in Germany, Japan, and South Korea that armies and bombs annihilating evil tyrants = liberty, peace and prosperity. Hopefully the same prosperity will come to Afghanistan, the Balkans and Iraq via benevolent guidance from the USA.

An un-united America has emboldened an egocentric France, cowardly Germany and a stronger Saddam. A war that could have been over by now is going to start at the beginning of summer a needless delay that will cost us troops and moral.

Some in our country want to give Saddam the benefit of the doubt. If we are too ignorant, fearful, or too far into denial to protect our interest and security we will receive the security and safety we deserve as a reward for our vacillation, apathy and ignorance.
