Did Iraq Make Us Less Safe - As B. Hussein Obama Says?

Topics: Political News and commentaries

Barack Obama usually concludes his comments on Iraq by saying, "and it hasn't made us safer." Indeed, it is an article of faith on the left that nothing the Bush administration has done has enhanced our security, and, on the contrary, its various alleged blunders have only contributed to the number of jihadists who want to attack us.

However, that's not what the empirical facts show. Clearly, it seems beyond dispute that something has made us safer since 2001. Over the course of the Bush administration, successful attacks on the United States and its interests overseas have dwindled to virtually nothing. The numbers make it clear that Obama and the Democrats are wrong.

So despite Obama's lies to the contrary, America is safer because of what President George Bush has done. While Bush has his faults and I disagree with him on several issues, America is safer since 9/11 - after Iraq - because of him.

B. Hussein's disingenuous argument about us intervening in Iraq having made us less safe, is akin to someone having a really bad cockroach infestation and blaming the exterminator when he starts to apply the pesticide for all the cockroaches coming out of the woodwork!

Of course, the Dems would rather pretend the Islamic cockroaches are not hiding in the woodwork, and if they spot one, they'll rush to meet with it, and appease it, and sing Kum Ba Ya with it... like Carter and Pelosi - Allah Akbar!

I am notorious for being politically incorrect, and the price in American lives would have been far greater, but I not only agree with McCain Bush did a wimpy job of invading Iraq by not having had more troops on the ground to begin with, but would have not only invaded Iraq, but swept in a swath with our forces from Lebanon through Syria into Iraq from the west, and through Iran into Iraq from the east, as well as from Kwait in the south, and by neutralizing those countries, kill "several birds with one stone," as you may say.

In the long run it would have given us better results, would have averted the insurgency fueled by Iraq's Islamofacist neighbors, Lebanon would no longer be in the grips of Hamas, and by helping to "nip in the bud" the ensuing terrorist bloodbath fermented by Syria and Iran, may have in the end helped save more lives throughout the region and bring greater stability to the Middle East.

I'm sorry, but as any exterminator will tell you, if you wish to exterminate the cockroaches in your apartment, but your neighbors' are infested, the only real solution to the problem is the "tent" approach covering the whole building...or they'll keep coming back!

Oh well! Hindsight is always 20/20.
