The European quagmire

Ralph Peters, in the New York Post provides an eloquent rebuttal to the European leftists who are poised to protest during President Bush’s visit to Britain. As Peters explains, “As with Islamic terrorism, European protests against our actions in Iraq are not so much about us as about the protesters’ own demons. The current French and German gloating over their belief that we’re trapped in a quagmire against which they oh-so-wisely warned us is as shabby as it’s fundamentally wrong. We aren’t trapped in a quagmire in Iraq. But the European left is trapped in a quagmire of failure, mendacity and guilt.
How could they not hate the land of the free? Whether we speak of America or Iraq.”
