Pelosi: Iraq “is a failure” – Al-Qaeda Missed the Memo

J.J. Jackson* | February 13, 2008 

The talking points on Nancy Pelosi’s desk haven’t been updated in a year. Iraq is still a failure and those stupid Iraqis (her obvious opinion) are squandering our help.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said twice Sunday that Iraq “is a failure,” adding that President Bush’s troop surge has “not produced the desired effect.”

“The purpose of the surge was to create a secure time for the government of Iraq to make the political change to bring reconciliation to Iraq,” Pelosi said on CNN’s “Late Edition.” “They have not done that.”

The speaker hastened to add: “The troops have succeeded, God bless them.”

More “We support the troops”, but the troops suck at doing their job and are fighting a losing and worthless war rhetoric. However, it appears the Al-Qaeda hasn’t gotten the same memo as Ms. Pelosi.

Al-Qaeda in Iraq faces an “extraordinary crisis”. Last year’s mass defection of ordinary Sunnis from al-Qaeda to the US military “created panic, fear and the unwillingness to fight”. The terrorist group’s security structure suffered “total collapse”.

These are the words not of al-Qaeda’s enemies but of one of its own leaders in Anbar province — once the group’s stronghold. They were set down last summer in a 39-page letter seized during a US raid on an al-Qaeda base near Samarra in November.
The US military released extracts from that letter yesterday along with a second seized in another November raid that is almost as startling.

That second document is a bitter 16-page testament written last October by a local al-Qaeda leader near Balad, north of Baghdad. “I am Abu-Tariq, emir of the al-Layin and al-Mashahdah sector,” the author begins. He goes on to describe how his force of 600 shrank to fewer than 20.

Oops. Hey Nancy, looks like you need to make a special trip over there and tell the terrorists they have to get with the program and stick to the Democrat talking points.

Are we losing the war yet mommy? No, not yet … but we’re trying! Vote Democrat! RAAAHHRRR!

    It takes balls for a failure like Nancy Pelosi to call our troops and their effort a failure. That’s what she is doing no ifs or buts.
