Mission Statement: This blog reviews the news of the day in light of 242 years of American history. "Nationalism," a modern day pejorative, has been our country's politic throughout history, until 2008. Obama changed that narrative. Trump is seeking a return to our historical roots. Midknight Review supports this return to normality.
We lost the peace in Iraq; lost the war in Afghanistan; and, now, Obama is working on his third war-time loss. That must not be allowed. Americans agree. 2016 will be about victory against ISIS.
A CNN/ORC poll found 53 percent of Americans support sending ground troops to fight ISIS. That was a 7-point increase from last month. We are proud of our military and know that these young men and women, volunteers all, are the world's BAD ASSES. We could extinguish ISIS in three months if we had a president who understood that war, fought to win, is a necessary evil when faced with True Evil (Boko Haran, ISIS, the Taliban, N Korea etc.).

The peace was lost in Iraq when GW Bush launched an unnecessary war.
ReplyDeleteFeb 11, 2010, Biden declares Iraq as Obama's greatest victory.
ReplyDeleteDec 14, 2011, Obama declares Iraq "strong, stable and sovereign."
doesn't matter what anyone said... the fact remains -The peace was lost in Iraq when GW Bush launched an unnecessary war.
ReplyDeleteWords matter and here is why: Its not me saying the war was won, its your people who declared victory. Bush cannot be blamed for WINNING a war that was later (3 years after he left office)lost by Obama.
DeleteLet's not forget that the Afghan war is Obama's, as is this ISIS war. Understand that the JV team just kicked Obama's ass.
