Jaws of Defeat

The United States and Israel and every sentient being in the path of the
Islamist crusade are teetering on the brink of a massive defeat in
Lebanon and thus in the war on terror. The incident in Qana
inevitable when a terrorist army uses its own citizens as human shields
may provide the occasion for the surrender, but even if it doesn't a
surrender is being prepared by the now predictable responses of the West
to attacks from this fanatic, calculating and cynical an enemy. Qana, be
it noted was the source of 150 missile attacks on Israeli civilians,
and the population of Qana was warned to leave but chose to stay
alongside the terrorists. Like most of Lebanon, the population of Qana
is on the side of the aggressors, and apparently like most Muslims in
this part of the world, death for them is a badge of martyrdom and
honor, and a noble pathway to heaven. They are willing instruments of
the Islamist jihad.
Lest it be forgotten, this is a war that began more than thirty years
ago with the triumph of the Ayatollahs in Iran in 1979. That revolution
established the first radical Islamic state, its war cry "Death to
America" and its goal the establishment of a global Islamic empire.
Nearly thirty years later, Iran is on the verge of acquiring nuclear
weapons and its imperial war is being waged on Iran's Lebanese frontier
by its Hezbollah proxy. One month into the fighting which began with the
attacks on Israel, the scenario for the West's defeat in this phase of
the war is quite obvious and quite simple.
The appeasers of Islamo-fascism who have been calling for a cease fire and bewailing
"civilian casualties" in Lebanon and Gaza will succeed. Hezbollah will agree to turn
over its arms to the pro-Hezbollah Lebanese army. The pro-Hezbollah UN will
establish a security zone on Lebanon's southern border to keep the area clear of
non-government militias (of which Hezbollah is the only one). The credulous in the
Western camp will greet this as a victory for the peacemakers. But exactly the
opposite will be the case.
According to a recent poll in Lebanon eighty percent of the Lebanese
Arabs support Hezbollah. In other words, just as Hamas (created by the
same Muslim Brotherhood as spawned al-Qaeda) is now the Palestinian
government, so Hezbollah will emerge as the government of Lebanon. The
Lebanese army will become the new Hezbollah "militia," with 75,000
soldiers added to its terrorist ranks. Only this won't be a militia. It
will be the terrorist army of a sovereign power enjoying the right to
openly negotiate its arms deals with Syria and Iran. The next battle
with Iran, in other words, will be World War III.
In fact, the next battleground in the spread of Shi'ia fascism is
already in progress and aflame. It is Iraq, where Iran's Shi'ia armies
are already in the field under the command of the sheik of Sadr City,
the America-hating cleric Moqtadar al-Sadr. Al-Sadr, it should be noted,
is alive and in the field because the appeasers in this country,
beginning with the Democratic Party but extending into the Bush State
Department, stymied the first battle of Fallujah when al-Sadr was
trapped and could have been killed and his militia destroyed. The Bush
Administration had to delay the attack until after Kerry's defeat in the
November 2004 elections in order to avoid the political complications
that would have attended the battle in the midst of an election
campaign. This allowed al-Sadr to escape the trap, enter the Iraqi
parliament, mobilize his forces and lead the Shi'ia camp in Iraq's
civil war.
The first battle of Fallujah is only one of many defeats inflicted by
the appeasers and abettors of Islamic imperialism in the West. Within
the western camp, aid to the enemy has taken many forms, beginning with
the reckless attacks on the commander-in-chief of America's forces as a
liar and murderer, while identifying his decision to fight the
terrorists as the source of their terror. Are there terrorists in Iraq?
They are only there because Bush created them. Or so say his critics. Is
Hezbollah a Nazi army? That's because the Jews "occupied" Palestinian
lands - which is two lies in one. All Israeli "occupation" is the
product of four aggressive Arab wars against Israel. When Israel
withdraws - as in Lebanon - it is attacked. The source of the terror in
Lebanon as in Iraq is to be found in the Koran and in the despotisms of
the Arab Middle East. This is obvious, but the appeasement camp cannot
face the reality that its enemy is implacable and its hatred is not
caused by anything its targets - Jews, Christians and other infidels
have done.
The division of America is now the greatest threat to our ability to
prevail in the war on terror - and the left knows this and is encouraged
by it. In fact, America is not divided enough for the American left
which is now in full purge mode in Connecticut, where it is attempting
to bring down the one statesman in the Democratic Party who might
re-unite his country in the face of its enemies.
In the midst of these wars with a genocidal enemy, those who clamor for
cease-fires before the enemy is defeated, who call for withdrawals that
would leave sovereign states in the hands of an implacable foe, who
decry the civilian casualties caused by the only armies who do not
target civilians, who exploit the Abu Ghraibs on our side and not
theirs, whose hysterical fear of the reality we face takes the form of
pathological denial which causes them to project the enemy's rabid
hatred for us onto our own commander-in-chief - those blame America
firsters will have a lot to answer for before this conflict is over.
