Terrorists Prefer Kerry
by Dave Gibson, Columnist

Dave Gibson Sen. John Kerry (D-MA)It is no great secret to anyone that John Kerry is weak on national defense. It is the one issue that can sink his campaign. Until recently, the word "defense" could not even be found on Kerry's official Senate website.

In his 22 years in the U.S. Senate, Kerry has voted against every single major weapons system which has come before Congress. He voted to kill the M1 Abrams tank, which has performed magnificently in both Gulf Wars. He voted to kill the Patriot Missile Defense System, which protected innocent Israeli citizens from the attacks of Saddam Hussein. He opposed production of the Tomahawk Cruise Missile, which has proven invaluable. When you examine Kerry's record, it makes you wonder if Zell Miller was only speaking metaphorically!

While President Reagan fought The Cold War, Kerry pushed for an 'arms freeze.' Reagan came into office, determined to bring down the 'evil empire" that was the Soviet Union. Kerry seems to have entered office, determined to appease.

In 1989, Kerry (right) voted against giving the death penalty to terrorists who kill Americans. How can he expect the American people to believe that he will now be tough on terrorists?

The weakness of John Kerry has not been lost on the Islamic terrorists. In recent weeks, attacks upon American soldiers and Iraqi security forces have been stepped up. In hopes that the American electorate will grow weary of war and vote for the defeatist Kerry, these enemies of democracy commit murder.

 

Mohammed Amin, a leader in the Muslim Scholars Association and a supporter of the Iraqi insurgents recently said: "If the U.S. Army suffered numerous humiliating losses, Kerry would emerge as the superman of the American people"

Iraqi terrorist leader Abu Jalal told an Iraqi reporter: "American elections and Iraq are linked tightly together. We've got to work together to change the election, and we've done so. With our strikes, we've dragged Bush into the mud."

Among others who favor John Kerry, Yasser Arafat recently endorsed the Democratic nominee. A Kerry presidency would no doubt see the terrorist leader making more official White House visits (as he did during the Clinton administration). Kerry has often referred to Arafat as a "statesman."

The terrorists know the same thing that at least half of America knows...If Kerry is elected, the War On Terror will come to a halt. Remember, this is the man who views terrorism as only a "nuisance."

When you go inside the voting booth, ask yourself...Who would Bin Laden vote for? ***
