All Americans should know, if we fail, the American far-Left will create a mantra using Vietnam, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iraq which will hammer the U.S.A into a shell of it's former self.  The American far-Left is feckless.  If the wars go well with few al qaeda attacks here in the U.S.A, the American far-Left will rage "the greatest need" is to use U.S. soldiers and the money at home.  The government must offer “constituent services” like cleaning up after tornados or nation building here in the U.S.A.  The far-Left will scream “stop the unnecessary wars” on the other side of the planet.  If the wars go poorly with a large number of al qaeda bomb attacks here in the U.S.A, the American left will rage "the greatest need" is to use American soldiers to "go on the offensive and kill bin Laden in Pakistan." The far-Left will attack, attack and attack.
The far-Left will fecklessly attack politically here in the U.S.A because "our shopping malls are being bombed every week."  The American far-Left is politically ruthless, making it impossible to discount the impact of failure on the American narrative.  The far-Left will always use all foreign wars to attempt to seize absolute political power in the U.S.A.  The U.S.A abandoned the democrats in Indochina and the Vietnamese democrats were slaughtered, suffering the "killing fields."  Failure in Pakistan or Iraq or Afghanistan will make for bloody television here in the U.S.A and the American far-Left will use these failed wars as a political message to seize absolute political power here in the U.S.A., installing one party rule.  Wise counsel tells us to steel our hearts here in America for for a long hot war against al qaeda and an even longer political war against centralizing, big-government, totalitarian, far-left, progressivism.  Have no doubt it will be a miracle to pay any less a price.
