Is Obama Preparing to Surrender Afghanistan?

Loading

That is what Andrew McCarthy thinks. He notes the significance of President Obama’s recruiting Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi to mediate secret negotiations between the U.S. and the Taliban:

The surrender is complete now. The Hindu reports that the Obama administration has turned to Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, the Muslim Brotherhood’s leading jurist, to mediate secret negotiations between the United States and the Taliban. …

For those who may be unfamiliar with him, he is the most influential Sunni Islamist in the world, thanks to such ventures as his al-Jazeera TV program (Sharia and Life) and website (IslamOnline.net). In 2003, he issued a fatwa calling for the killing of American troops in Iraq. …

Qaradawi urges that Islam must dominate the world, under a global caliphate governed by sharia. He maintains that Islam “will conquer Europe [and] will conquer America.” …

Thus does Sheikh Qaradawi champion Hamas, mass-murder attacks, and suicide bombings. “They are not suicide operations,” he brays. “These are heroic martyrdom operations.” Indeed, he elaborates, “The martyr operations is [sic] the greatest of all sorts of jihad in the cause of Allah.”

You get the drift. So, what sort of deal is Qaradawi charge with negotiating?

After thousands of young Americans have laid down their lives to protect the United States from jihadist terror, President Obama apparently seeks to end the war by asking Qaradawi, a jihad-stoking enemy of the United States, to help him strike a deal that will install our Taliban enemies as part of the sharia state we have been building in Afghanistan.

When you figure that Obama has made friends of our enemies, and enemies of our friends, it doesn’t take much open-minded thinking to know that he doesn’t want the USA to be a republic. I ain’t sure what what he wants to change it to, but I know it ain’t what most of Americans want.

Have you people here no historical perspective? What outsider has ever captured Afghanistan and been able to hold it?

How did it work out for the British????

Any retard knows you can’t “win” in Afghanistan if the people don’t want you there.

Bush should have carpet bombed the place for 5 years straight, then rinse and repeat ever 6 months. It would have been cheaper, cost fewer lives and been more effective than this fiasco.

Nation building is for morons.

God knows I can’t stand Barry O’BasketCase and exit from Afghanistan strictly political; but, as I have said repeatedly there is nothing there-there worth one drop of American blood. The job is not ours to turn an eighth century society into a modern environment. Kabal is eleven time zones east of WashDish but a millinium backwards in real time. Islam will continue to beheaad people by sword and stone women to death so the challenge is to keep those Tallies riding horses in Muslimbia and not flying airplanes coming to this country.

Obama’s friend, Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, mouths many of the same views about Americans as Obama, himself does.
Who has Obama gone up against as if they were his enemy?
Fox News.
Veterans.
TEA Partiers.
Fly-Over folks who cling to Bible and guns.
Israelis.
(Has Obama EVER gone against extremist, militant Muslims, except for a few in al Qaeda?)

What has Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi said?

*Islam “will conquer Europe [and] will conquer America not through the sword but through da’wa.”

*”Those killed fighting the American forces are martyrs.”

*”They are not suicide operations. These are heroic martyrdom operations. The martyr operations is [sic] the greatest of all sorts of jihad in the cause of Allah.”

*“It is unfortunate to hear that the grand imam [the imam of Mecca’s Grand Mosque] has said it was not permissible to kill civilians in any country or state, even in Israel.”

*“Oh Allah, take this oppressive, Jewish, Zionist band of people. Oh Allah, do not spare a single one of them. Oh Allah, count their numbers and kill them, down to the very last one.”

@Nan G, #4:

Who has Obama gone up against as if they were his enemy?

Ask any of the following, bearing in mind that access to a Ouiji board will be required:

Osama bin Laden
Anwar al-Awlaki
Abu Hafs al-Shahri
Atiyah Abd al-Rahman
Ilyas Kashmiri
Ammar al-Wa’ili
Harun Fazul
Younis al-Mauritani
Baitullah Mahsud
Saleh Ali Saleh Nabhan
Abu Ali al-Harithi
Ali Saleh Farhan
Saleh al-Somali
Muhammad Haqqani
Qari Zafar
Hussein al-Yemeni
Abu Ayyub al-Masri
Abu Omar al-Baghdadi
Sheik Saeed al-Masri
Hamza al-Jawfi

Google any name to see why they were on the Obama administration’s hit list.

From The Terrorist Notches on Obama’s Belt, ABC News, 09/30/2011.

@Greg:

Greg,
Remember how the media made fun of the deaths of terrorists in al Qaeda.
“How many #2 men can there be in al Qaeda?”, they joked.
Another meme from the msm when Bush was wiping out al Qaeda and Taliban leaders was that ”every one you kill just causes ten more to take up arms against us.”
I don’t minimize the few dead during Obama’s tenure.
Kudos.
Kudos to our fighting men and women, just as when they wiped out enemy leaders under Bush.

PS,

Younis al-Mauritani, not dead. Just arrested.

~~~~~~~~~~

Harun Fazul, killed, but Obama had nada to do with it. There was a firefight in Somalia.

~~~~~~~

Ammar al-Wa’ili
Abu Ali al-Harithi,
Ali Saleh Farhan all killed in Yemen by Yemeni forces, again, nada to do with Obama.

~~~~~~~~

Abu Ayyub al-Masri
Abu Omar al-Baghdadi both killed by Iraqi forces, and they are very proud of that fact.

~~~~~~~~~~~

So, re-doing your “Obama killed ’em” list:
Osama bin Laden
Anwar al-Awlaki
Abu Hafs al-Shahri
Atiyah Abd al-Rahman
Ilyas Kashmiri
Ammar al-Wa’ili
Harun Fazul
Younis al-Mauritani
Baitullah Mahsud
Saleh Ali Saleh Nabhan
Abu Ali al-Harithi
Ali Saleh Farhan
Saleh al-Somali
Muhammad Haqqani
Qari Zafar
Hussein al-Yemeni
Abu Ayyub al-Masri
Abu Omar al-Baghdadi
Sheik Saeed al-Masri
Hamza al-Jawfi

Still, “great work” for whoever did it.
