[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 346504, member: 2189"] I found your comment here of interest after reading an op-ed by Micheal Scheuer who worked for the CIA for 22 years and many of those years was focused on Al-Qaeda and Bin Laben. His op-ed was entitled "Why Doesn't Al-Qaeda Attack the US?" and it is an interesting question on many levels to ponder. And he answers the question of many levels but he made one statement that when I read your words above came right back to my mind and here they are. [URL='http://www.antiwar.com/scheuer/?articleid=12911'][B][COLOR=blue]http://www.antiwar.com/scheuer/?articleid=12911[/COLOR][/B][/URL] The charge of appeasement towards Obama is not so much my issue that I take if you will but rather this.
