Biden Gaffe

“The Taliban per se is not our enemy.” That was a statement from our Vice President in an interview with Newsweek/Daily Beast. This seems to be a trend that the Obama administration can never seem to overcome. They pity the terrorists and they refuse to talk tough to our enemies. The Taliban gave Osama Bin Laden refuge for years, while he was one of the most sought after terrorists in United States history. For years he was number one on the FBI Ten Most Wanted Criminals for his role in the 1998 U.S. embassy bombings in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania and Nairobi, Kenya, that killed 223 people and injured nearly 4,000. Their role in giving him sanctuary was why he was able to plan the September 11, World Trade Center attacks that took the lives of 2,996 American lives. Not only did Biden not try to apoligize for it he tried to clarify that, that was what he meant. This comes on the heal of Obama's tumultuous relationship with Israel, in which he blames Israel for Palastenian agression and his sudden withdrawal of troops from Iraq in an election year. Not to mention his administration's stance on not referring to the religious aspect of an Islamic terrorist but instead wants to call them "man-caused disasters," and his statement that it was work place violence that occurred in the Fort Hood attack. Even though the gunmans motives were clear, he did it based on his religious beliefs. How do you know what to fight when someone want even explain what your fighting? In World War II, American soldiers knew that Nazi soldiers were not going to blow themselves up cause they belived they would get hundreds of virgins in the sky, if they knew that they would do such a thing the game plan towards that enemy would of changed drastically. Obama and his entire administration are making themselves look childish with their constant refusals to call what we are up against what it is. Liberals thought the war in Iraq was nationbuilding but it is not, it is trying to take these Islamic extremist and this radical belief system out of these countries so that the people there don't have to live in fear of suicide bomber trying to blow up their children when they are out playing. It is not a war on Islam, it is a war against Radical Islam and their is nothing wrong with saying it.
