Hail Mary Play

In football a hail Mary play is when the quarterback throws a long pass toward the end zone in hope that his player will catch it or draw a penalty. It is usually seen as an act of desperation. Imagine if last week during the Colt-Steeler game (which the Steelers led in the whole way) if the Steelers stopped the game while they were up 14-3 and said "We want to negotiate a truce. The terms will be fair" and then they agreed to even the score and both teams go home. It is ridiculous because no one who is in the lead stops the game and requests a "truce."

Now there is a tape that, and let me make this clear, is REPORTEDLY (but not confirmed) from Osama bin Laden. In this tape, he tells us that his group of terrorists have been able to infiltrate our security and that the only reason they have not attacked is that they need time to get properly organized. This statement is what you would expect from the enemy whether it is true or not is another story, but we would expect him to say it. What he said after that though, gives us insight into the war on terror and its effect on Osama bin Laden and his band of killers. OBL said:

"We do not mind offering you a long-term truce with fair conditions that we adhere to," he said. "We are a nation that God has forbidden to lie and cheat. So both sides can enjoy security and stability under this truce so we can build Iraq and Afghanistan, which have been destroyed in this war.


This is very telling because the bad guys have been losing a lot of their members. We have reason to believe that some terrorists who were important to the cause were killed by us in a bombing last week. The reason that OBL wants a truce is that they are losing. His claim is that they want to rebuild Iraq and Afghanistan. Right. What they really want to rebuild is their terrorist network. They want us to give them time to recruit and train more people who want to kill us. The truce is for a period of time which means they intend to fight again.

The indication that they can not lie or cheat is a joke because they lie and cheat every time they open their mouths. Does Baghdad Bob ring a bell. If that was not lying i do not know what is and how is it any thing other than cheating to use women and children as shields? We have these cowards on the ropes and we need to keep hammering them. We need to keep killing them until they are no longer effective and we are succeeding in that endeavor.

Make no mistake about it, there are people like Kerry and Murtha who will say we need to discuss the truce. They will tell us to listen to what the man has to say. They will want us to believe that it is the honorable thing to do. The honorable thing for us to do is to kill the enemy until they are all in hell where they belong.

"We have these cowards on the ropes and we need to keep hammering at them." Absolutely! It's the only logical thing to do. I don't even know why we are "talking" with them. You cannot talk reason to these people because reason is not something they are capable of.

I saw your comment on "Woman, Honor Thyself" (Angel's blog). Please do let me know when you put up your post on your response to liberalism. I am interested in reading it.

Blessings. Keep up the good work. :)
