Hillary Joins Unilateral Surrender Club
Speaking at the Council on Foreign Relations, Hillary Clinton joined the Unilateral Surrender Club. Here’s what she said in her ‘declaration’:
Concerning Iraq, Clinton blasted the administration’s policy, and said the best policy instead would progressively redeploy US troops in the region, call for a regional conference to help discuss options and advocate for the creation of an organization aiming at guaranteeing a division of oil income among all Iraqis.
Translation: Let’s forget all consideration of defeating the terrorists in Iraq. It’s just too time-consuming and it’s difficult.
Talk of regional conferences and creating “organizations aiming at guaranteeing a division of oil income among all Iraqis” is just that. TALK. Liberals talk about process; Republicans focus on achieving the highest priorities. In Iraq, that means it’s imperative that we crush the Iranian-backed militias. That means giving the military everything they need to crush Iraq’s enemies. That means getting topnotch equipment into Iraqi troops’ hands, getting them trained in using that equipment and getting them to a high level of expertise with that equipment.
That’s been the plan all along. It’s a plan that takes time to accomplish. It’s difficult to (1) create a military while the country is under attack; (2) equip that military with the proper equipment and (3) train that new military with the new equipment while building that military’s infrastructures (command, equipment, logistics). Then factor in that one political party is expressing indignation that we can’t snap our fingers, stand up that military, permitting our troops to leave.
Frankly, it’s amazing that no one’s seriously taken on these long-winded blowhards for suggesting that we aren’t making progress at unprecedented rates in the history of mankind. People like Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden should be taken to task for intimating that we aren’t making progress at a fast enough rate.
When you consider all that must be accomplished to start a military while fighting a war that seeks to prevent the creation of that military, it’s insane to think that 3 years is nearly enough time to accomplish all that.

I other words, let the Middle east go to hell in a hand basket and let Osama take over with his band of thieves. She is about as sound in judgment as John ‘ the freak’ Kerry.
