Terrorists Urge Americans to Vote Democrat

Deroy Murdock:

As Americans vote today, polls suggest Democrats may capture Congress. Leading terrorists pray this happens.

“Americans should vote Democrat,” said Jihad Jaara, a senior member of the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades. Jaara led the Palestinian terror gang’s 2002 seizure of Bethlehem’s Church of the Nativity. Jaara added, “There is an atmosphere in America that encourages those who want to withdraw from Iraq. It is time that the American people support those who want to take them out of this Iraqi mud.”

Resorting to negative campaigning, Jaara aimed at the Republican-in-Chief these uncharitable words: “Bush is a sick person, an alcoholic that has no control of what is going on around him.”

Jaara spoke with Aaron Klein of WorldNetDaily from Ireland, where he was exiled after directing the armed attack on Christ’s birthplace. Klein interviewed other Muslim fanatics who yearn for a Democratic victory.

“I tell the American people, vote for withdrawal” from Iraq, said Hamas’s Abu Abdullah. “Abandon Israel if you want to save America.” Abdullah worries that Democrats might renege on their Iraqi-retreat aspirations. “I am afraid that even after the American people will elect those who promise to leave Iraq, the U.S. will not do so.”

Still, Democratic cut-and-runnism emboldens Middle Eastern terrorists. “As Arabs and Muslims, we feel proud of this talk,” Islamic Jihad’s Muhammad Saadi said. “Very proud from the great successes of the Iraqi resistance. This success that brought the big superpower of the world to discuss a possible withdrawal.” Saadi explained that a U.S. pullout would “prove the resistance is the most important tool and that this tool works.”

One hopes the jihadists have underestimated the resolve of Democrats to fight the war on terror, but I am at a loss to provide evidence of the proposed Democrat congressional leadership to support the war effort in any substantive degree post-Afghanistan.
