Title: Condoleezza Rice: "If You Want Another Terrorist Attack In The U.S., Abandon Afghanistan"

Those in Congress who would like to see the U.S. begin to pull out of Afghanistan don't have a supporter in former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.

In a new interview with Fortune Magazine, Rice offered extremely sharp criticism of the idea of withdrawal and painted the consequences of this course of action with an almost Cheneyesque bluntness.

"The last time we left Afghanistan, and we abandoned Pakistan," she said, "that territory became the very territory on which Al Qaeda trained and attacked us on September 11th. So our national security interests are very much tied up in not letting Afghanistan fail again and become a safe haven for terrorists.


"It's that simple," she declared, "if you want another terrorist attack in the U.S., abandon Afghanistan."

As the Washington Post reported Monday, Obama is rethinking all aspects of the U.S. strategy in the Afghanistan in light of the disputed presidential election, an increase in U.S. casualties and waning public support here in America.

In the interview, Rice did acknowledge the recent election as a setback. But she argued that our own experience with democracy proved that it takes time to get things right: "Our democracy wasn't so perfect at the beginning either," she said, citing her own family's experience in the pre-Civil Rights era.

Rice's comments come at a time when the talk of the threat of a possible terrorist attack in the U.S. has re-emerged following a series of arrests in Denver and New York related to an alleged bomb plot. "Counterterrorism officials have issued security bulletins to police around the nation about terrorists' desire to attack stadiums, entertainment complexes and hotels," the AP reported today.

Insanity. And BS war propaganda, too.

So, all those $TRILLIONS AND $TRILLIONS for the Department of Defense, the CIA, the FBI and so forth and so on and they are INCAPABLE of defending the US from another terrorist attack.

Why don't we just fire all the above?

How goofy can this gal be?

The preponderance of opinion among those who have looked into the nature of 9/11 is that it was an inside job, most likely arising out of PNAC's warmongering strategy to suck America into using its military power against countries which want to help Palestinians get back land from Israeli terrorists. But even if it was not an inside job but instead was perpetrated by Arabs who allied themselves with Palestinians, the US fighting Israel's Afghan and Iraq enemies, and soon perhaps Iran, is completely unconscionable because the cause of the Mid East problem is Israel's theft of Palestinian property. Try helping a thief or other criminal in some illegal act in America or anywhere else and you'll end up in jail. Technically, Condy, Bush, et al should all be in jail for their "interference" with attempts by Iraq, the Taleban and Al Qaeda to return Palestine to its rightful owners.
