For Us And For Yourselves
Omar from Iraq the Model writes what should be a wake-up call for the posturing politicians. (No, I am not optimistic that it will be heard, but I hold out hope that the Reid-Pelosi regime is rapidly running up onto the rocks with the media turning on them). This one is a must read. (Including the extended entry where the title for this post came from).
Why Are the Democrats Doing This?
Instead of trying to come up with ideas to help they try to halt the sincere effort to stabilize Iraq and rescue the Middle East from a catastrophe.
I am Iraqi and to me the possible consequences of this vote are terrifying. Just as we began to see signs of progress in my country the Democrats come and say ‘well, it’s not worth it, so it’s time to leave’.
Evidently to them my life and the lives of twenty five million Iraqis are not worth trying for and they shouldn’t expect us to be grateful for this.For four years everybody made mistakes; the administration made mistakes and admitted them and my people and leaders made mistakes as well and we regret them.
But now we have a fresh start; a new strategy with new ideas and tactics reached after studying previous mistakes and designed to reverse the setbacks we witnessed in the course of this war.This strategy although its tools are not fully deployed yet is showing promising signs of progress.
General Petraeus said yesterday that things will get tougher before they get easier in Iraq and this is the kind of fact-based realistic assessment of the situation which politicians should listen to when they discuss the war thousands of miles away.
Reid and Pelosi are determined to lead America to defeat. They have no regard - none whatsoever - for the bloodbath that will ensue if we pull out of Iraq. They have no regard for the fact that AMERICA will lose, not the Republicans; our nation. They have not one, single bit of care about the victims they will leave behind in their mindless pursuit of defeat for their own nation. They have all the time in the world for dictators, no time at all for the man they sent to carry out a war in the nation's interest.
For them, there is only political advantage, not the real interests of the people they purport to serve. Nothing whatsoever for the people they are condemning to die for their perceived political advantage. The politicians running madly after the Democratic nomination for president say that Bush diminished the standing of the US in the world. They'd be more accurate if they looked in a mirror.

I wrote an article on my blog regarding those concrete walls and how they can stop the more than 1,000 years of violence.
The blog article is entitled:
“10 years of inconvenient walls VERSUS another 1,000 years of violenceâ€
Thanks.
