The Mahdi

Fact: In October 1993 CNN showed the body of a dead American soldier being dragged through the streets of Mogidishu, Sommila. President Clinton ordered the removal of US troops from Sommila and never during his administration commited US Ground forces again as a result of those photos. In 1998 after the bombing of the US embassy in Kenya, President Clinton ordered the firing of Cruise Missiles at Al Qudea bases in Afganistan.

The US action to retreat in the face of adversity in Sommila in 1993 led Osma bin Laden and Al Qudea to conclude that America is weak...that Americans have no stomach for conflict....Al Qudea operatives had a hand in directing the Sommilies in fighting US troops. This embolden Al Qudea to further action against the US.

President Clintons decision to fire Cruise Missiles against Al Qudea after the Kenya bombings had the effect of popularizing Osma bin Laden in the Muslim world...as someone who successfully stood up against American Military might. This further embolden Al Queda to further actions against America ultimatelly resulting in 911.


Sometime it requires a leader that will keep his hands upon the wheel and his eyes upon the road and being the sharpest knife in the drawer is of secondary importance. We have seen what an intelligent President with little backbone to make the tough decisions has done for America. Who made decisions based upon what the polls showed...

GW rightly or wrongly has the helm tightly in his grasp....he is making decisons in a region of the globe where your damed if U do and damed if you don't. These decisions effect the very survival of the nation.

Never forget the dedication of our enemy....Osma bin Laden.. a man of extreme wealth, power and priviledge who chooses to live in a cave because of his beliefs. This is the power of men of Rightous Indignation, who would rather give up their lives than live in a world of secularism. This is a very powerfull enemy...one that could ignite the passions of the Islamic masses....
