opinionjournal has a rather lengthy, but good read, of how the democrats are leading us down a familiar path in iraq. even after living in france, i couldn’t tell you of a single french military victory save napolean, but this article tells of a military victory but political failure in algeria.
the mainstream media is doing nothing to report on the success of the surge that president bush recently instituted 2 years after democrats demanded it. my impression is that it is working rather well. this following of history down the wrong path reminds me of many an instance that mona charen illustrates in useful idiots.
take a few minutes to read the whole thing, if you can, and i’d love to hear some feedback from the leftys as to if his point of the article doesn’t ring true.
