Getting It Right

Here we are again. Last week we thought Al Qaeda was planning an attack in Germany when all along they were planning to capture American troops in Iraq. Yes there was a lot of chatter but we have not figured out how to decipher that chatter. By now we have to know that Iraqi soldiers are working closely with Al Qaeda and when the US surges so does Al Qaeda. We here talk of the US holding meetings with Iraq's neighbors but as much as we don't want to hear it there will come a time when Al Qaeda will have to be a part of those discussions. I know I will be blasted for saying that, but I'm looking further down the road and looking at what drew us into this situation knowing that's what will get us out. It's difficullt to see now because of all that's going on but to end the war in Iraq does not end the war with Al Qaeda, and by Al Qaeda I mean Osama bin Laden. We know this has spread way beyond our control and it has to come to a stop there has to be someone to stand up and say, no more bloodshed, and that person will have to be Osama bin Laden. If we don't do it before he is captured or killed the situation will be worst than we know it today. We cannot to allow stubborness to continue to tear the world apart. The world situation is a new one and all avenues have to be tried to bring an end to the fighting.
