US - bin Laden and the Democrats

Chriac's threat to us nuclear weapons against terrorists raise very little concern on the left.

But when bin Laden starts using the Democrats talking points, the left goes nuts. It's been said for a long time that the Democrats were playing into bin Laden's hands. Why are they shocked now?

This is exactly what happened during Vietnam. The left aided by their mouthpiece, the lying left wing media, aided North Vietnam and cost us the war. That's not my opinion, that's what the North said after the war.

Even Giap admitted in his memoirs that news media reporting of the war and the anti-war demonstrations that ensued in America surprised him. Instead of negotiating what he called a conditional surrender, Giap said they would now go the limit because America's resolve was weakening and the possibility of complete victory was within Hanoi's grasp. [How many more American lives were lost because of John Kerry? .ed]


And the North used the anti-war movement in its war strategy.


Bui Tin, who served on the general staff of the North Vietnamese army, received South Vietnam's unconditional surrender on April 30, 1975. In an interview with the Wall Street Journal after his retirement, he made clear the anti-war movement in the United States, which led to the collapse of political will in Washington, was "essential to our strategy."

"Essential to our strategy".

Just like they are to bin Laden today.

If you go to Memorandum right now, you will find a host of links to the blogsphere's reaction to all this. Memorandum is updated often so I don't know how long they will remain there and there are too many to link to here.

There are two undeniable facts in all of this. Bin Laden is using the Democrats talking points and the Democrats, with the lying left wing media assisting, are aiding bin Laden's cause. Here again, not my opinion but from bin Laden himself.

From Editor and Publisher.

SCARBOROUGH: Now, of course, Tucker, I'm not comparing these Democrats to Osama bin Laden, but look.

First thing, Osama talks about how our troops are terrorizing women and children in Iraq. John Kerry said the same thing in front of Bob Schieffer on "Face the Nation."

Osama's saying that George Bush knows he can't win this war, something that Howard Dean said, and, also, that this was launched for political reasons, which of course Ted Kennedy said last year, that this was all dreamed up in Texas for political benefit.

CARLSON: By the merchants of war who financed Bush's presidential campaign, in the words of Osama bin Laden and many on the left. In other words, Halliburton is responsible for this war, every single talking point.

I hate to think of Osama bin Laden reclining in his cave in Waziristan, reading the op-ed page of "The New York Times."

But, clearly, he is. He's got every talking point. It's uncanny.

Not at all. It's totally predictable as the Vietnam war tells us.
