Victor Davis Hanson ably summarizes progress in the war on terror and offers five lessons which must be remembered if that success is to continue.
Meanwhile in Iran, 440 volunteers, pledging to serve as suicide bombers, gathered at the Headquarters for Commerating Martyrs of the Global Islamic Movement. According to this report, the suicide bombers are given the following choice: "to train for suicide attacks against U.S. troops in Iraq; to train for suicide attacks against Israelis; or to assassinate British author Salman Rushdie, the author forced into hiding after the late Ayatollah Khomeini ordered Muslims to kill him."
Again, this demonstrates that Bush’s approach...attacking states that sponsor terror rather than blindly chasing terrorists all over the globe like Elmer Fudd chasing Buggs...is the correct approach. This event could never happen without governmental sponsorship, and that’s our true problem...rogue states that harbour these murderers.
I hate to say it, but Syria and Iran must go. We aren’t done in this part of the world by a long shot.
