So maybe Obama can explain his plan to give Osama bin Laden exactly what he wants.
Iraq is the perfect base to set up the jihad to liberate Palestine
-- Osama bin Laden, audiotape, released March 21, 2008
. . . the situation in Iraq brings news that the victory of Islam and the defeat of the [American] crusaders and those who stand under their banner is near, Allah willing
-- Ayman al-Zawahiri, interview, released April 17, 2008
Back in December, bin Laden even gave an entire speech devoted to the need to throw the Americans out of Iraq:
My speech to you today is about the conspiracies devised by the Zionist-Crusader alliance under the lead of America -- in cooperation with its agents in the region -- to hijack the fruits of the blessed Jihad in Mesopotamia, and what our duty is in frustrating these conspiracies.
In light of these statements, Obama's plan to withdraw from Iraq amounts to giving Osama bin Laden exactly what he wants. And that is softness on terror.
