Ex CIA Manager: Embrace Islamo Fascists!

Published by at 11:37 pm under All General Discussions

Want to know why we missed all the warning signs leading up to 9-11? Well, begin with the realization we didn’t miss them and then figure out that some in the CIA felt the US was so impotent that our cause is a lost cause. Check out what this recently retired ‘CIA expert’ on the ME has to say about what we have accomplished in the ME:

In an interview published this week by the online edition of Harper’s Magazine, Emile Nakhleh, who retired at the end of June as director of the agency’s Political Islam Strategic Analysis Programme, said that the Bush administration’s tactics had “lost a generation of goodwill in the Muslim world” and its Middle East democratisation programme “has all but disappeared, except for official rhetoric”.

Who is this clown kidding? We lost the ‘goodwill’ built up in the last generation? Was that the ‘goodwill’ behind the invasion of Kuwait by Saddam? Was that the ‘goodwill’ of the Iranians taking Americans hostage for over a year? Was it the killing of 234 Marines in Beruit by Hezbollah? Was it ‘goodwill’ that gaves us the first World Trade Center Bombing, the Embassy bombings, the USS Cole bombing and 9-11? No wonder we had our guard down! We had idiots like this who claim all we need to do is go back to the “good ‘ol days” when we died like lambs at the slaughter and did not fight back. And what does this fool think we should do? Embrace the terrorists and their Islamo-Fascist backers!

“The growing influence of Hezbollah, and its leader, Hasan Nasrallah, across the region and within the Sunni street, and the growing regional influence and reach of Iran, are two new realities that we should recognise and engage,” he told Harper’s editor, Ken Silverstein.

This guy is running for head of The Appeasers on the left. If this is the kind of naively suicidal, blame-America type which opposes Bush and the Reps, well then our choice is clear. We either surrender to Ahmedinejad like good little liberals are we fight along side Bush. Woman especially should be concerned about anyone who proposes we embrace the Burka and the Public whippings.

    I don’t know whether Gertz, in his just-out or soon-released book (“Enemy?” I’ll have to check the title, haven’t picked it up yet), has named names of the spies inside our intelligence outfits, but if so I’ll bet the ranch that bastard’s on the list.

    Remind me the CIA is on our side and they are some of the good guys.

    For once please give me a leaker who supports us.

    All I can say Haden has a job on his hands and I don’t envy him. Talk about having to walk up the down escelator.

    With all the dems BDS the state department nuckle dragging and the counter productive counterweight of some government agencies and the less than genuious actions of the congress, the fact that we can progress at all is a testimony to the rightness of GW.

    Imagine what we could do if we were united.

    Cancel that, it doesn’t reflect current reality.

    At least as the MSM tries to define it.

    What an idiot. Good will my tail end.

    You know the concept of democracy in the region will not be overnight, it will take years and considering the fact that people like this seem to think it is ok to go along for years and years and years with the same thugs and tyrants running the region, why is it democracy is a failure if it does not succeed in a year?

    When Hamas wins an election that does not mean democracy is a failure, it means the Palestinian people can no longer pretend to be innocent bystanders in their own world. That is the whole idea.

    on the positive side at least he’s now retired………

  5. Bill in AZ says:

    Did he say to convert to Islam too? Is he first in line (or maybe he did during all his “studies”)? After all his “studies”, one would think that he would understand what “embrace Islam” would require. So he is saying that all is lost already, and we might as well just convert, or pay the tax and be 2nd class oppressed dhimmis, or be killed. Well, much may be lost due to the stupidity and appeasment policies of the likes of Emile (sounds Fwench), but there are a bunch of Americans who won’t sit still for this – even if he will.

  6. MerlinOS2 says:

    Somehow I believe he confused himself as to where he worked.

    He is suppossed to be an impartial fact finder to develop intel.

    He sounds more like he thinks he was working at the State Department!

  7. clarice says:

    Not only are these people wrong, they insist they should have the determining hand in setting foregin policy no matter who is elected to the WH. A very dangerous clown team.

  8. kathie says:

    Maybe 9-11 cut off some of the good will!

  9. Ken says:

    Strata shows his dishonesty here, as “engage” does not mean
    “embrace.” Fitting deception for a guy who turns a blind eye to the Bush/Cheney/Wolfowitz cachet of lies which has caused app.2700
    deaths of US servicemen in a no-win war. Lies among which were
    duplicitous words by Bush himeslf suggesting bin Laden-Hussein
    co-operation. (Cheney was an even bolder liar, and here a Cheneyesque tactic would have had Strata defining “engage”
    as “form a military alliance with”…..)

    This guy might be retired, but he is still running his mouth.

    one way we could recreate good will is to leave Iraq,as the latest poll of Iraqis (above) shows 91% favor.

  12. MerryJ1 says:

    I know better than to respond to trolls, but not every Iraqi shares any position, and a “91%” poll on anything or a “.0091%” poll is a snapshot of a given point in time. A lot of Iraqis are like the Fadhil brothers, working their behinds off to help create a democratic Iraq. They’ll want us to leave when we aren’t needed, and they don’t want us to leave right now.

  13. Ken says:

    However polls since 2004 taken in Iraq (admittedly polltaking
    in anarchy is a new experiment-but then elections under occupation
    are always farcical, as Bush said when he hypocritically claimed the Lebanese couldn’t have a fair one until Syria left) reveal much consistency in Iraqi attitudes. The majority of all save the Kurds have wanted us out since then. (ref. NBC, Pew, Zogby, CBS among others.)
