Canadian Role a Myth

With our brave men and women serving valiantly over in Afghanistan in the War on Terror, it greatly pains me to hear ignorant and insincere "men" like NDP leader, Jack Layton wanting to negotiate with the Taliban and to cut and run to serve in more "humane" missions; such as peace-keeping.

First off, the fact that Layton wants to sit down with an enemy that will probably cut your throat as soon as you step foot inside the tent (You don't think he would personally make the trip, do you?) shows you just how much the man is out of touch with reality. He actually believes that these murderous facists can be reasoned with and be made to understand that we can "be friends" and will actually adhere to any cease-fires or agreements. He actually believes that terrorists want to build schools and let the Afghani youth (especially the females, right?) be educated. He really wants Canadians to believe that there can be "peace in our time" with groups such as Hamas, Hezbollah and al Qaeda. There is a reason Canadians have never voted the NDP to power, it's because even socialist-indoctrinated citizens know that he is a cowardly, flip-flopping terrorist sympathizer who knows nothing of defense.

To want to enbolden the enemy with a time-table for withdrawal (never mind the fact we are committed to NATO and any such time-table is not up to us) to show them weakness by letting them think if they kill a few of our soldiers, we'll run like the paper tigers they think we are and pull a Jimmy Carter by leaving a country's people, who want us to stay, at the (non) mercy of the evil regime that will take over is, as history has shown, sentencing to death not only the present Afghani government and their entire families, but anyone and everyone who assisted or supported the fragile leadership.

Secondly, for all of those who think that Canada's role internationally is merely walking around countries, who apparently haven't yet embraced the concept of paved roads; wearing blue berets and breaking up neighborhood fights, you have let yourself be caught up in the left's revisionism. Those like Layton are peddaling fairy tales of pacifism. They claim that Canada's role in peacekeeping has been an on-going mission since 1948. They want others to swallow the B.S. that Ottawa has sent troops to 40 other peacekeeping missions since then.

Sunil Ram, a professor at the American Military University, who is currently writing a book on peacekeeping says those numbers are misleading.

It seems that we haven't been involved in peacekeeping as much as Layton and his buddies would want you to believe. You can read the story, here.

Notice the quote by Ram when he says,
"The golden age of Canadian diplomacy ended 40 years ago." He adds that since then, Canada has been spending "most of our time in war, fighting."

The last sentence in the story, I think, says it all.
"We have to do our part in the defence of the West and defence of democracy and that requires fighting sometimes."

But then again, what do you expect from a party founded by communists?
