Preemptive Action Is Dead. Are We Next?
January 7, 2010 | 6 Comments
This video [via Gateway Pundit] PERFECTLY illustrates the mindset of a non-preemptive strategy for fighting the Jihad. Transcript below (emphasis added in red):
Question: What was the most shocking, stunning thing that you found out of the review? And, Secretary, to you, as well.
MR. BRENNAN: Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula is an extension of al Qaeda core coming out of Pakistan. And, in my view, it is one of the most lethal and one of the most concerning of it. The fact that they had moved forward to try to execute this attack against the homeland I think demonstrated to us — and this is what the review sort of uncovered — that we had a strategic sense of sort of where they were going, but we didn’t know they had progressed to the point of actually launching individuals here. And we have taken that lesson, and so now we’re full on top of it.
That is the death of preemption personified and put into words.
On Christmas, a group of Muslims Jihadis attempted to murder nearly 300 people because this administration wasn’t “on top” of a threat they admit they knew existed, until that threat was capable of fielding attacks against us here in America.
And that is if you take this administration at face value. Which you shouldn’t, because this statement should have been made after the Ft. Hood Jihad massacre which ALSO emanated from the SAME Yemeni Jihad network. That’s when they should have had their “duh” moment.
We are in the very best of hands!

Great. They knew there was a threat but they were sitting on their @sses waiting for al Qaeda to make a move.
And they were surprised?
Morons.
I’ll make it short. THEY DON’T CARE.
So, let me get this straight. They knew something was going to happen, but they were just to lazy and inept to do anything about it. Well, I guess it’s just to hard to protect America when you have to campaign every day.
And, I’m glad that Obama made everyone all warm & toasty inside by saying that the buck stops with him, but really, he’s not concern with laying blame? I guess that means that since he can’t convincingly blame Bush, then no one is really to blame.
