Pandering to the ACLU, Progressives in Congress have banded together to block passage of the current War Funding bill unless an Amendment prohibiting the release of controversial photos from Guantanamo is removed. Military Field Commanders and other experts have warned that the release of those photos will (1) result in a direct threat to the lives of US military personnel, and (2) provide Al Qaeda and other terrorist organizations around the world with an ideal propagandizing opportunity. The case is now before the Court.
There can be no doubt that Al Qaeda and other terrorist organizations are declared enemies of the United States. That Declaration of War has been repeatedly carried out over the past several years – in Iran, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Kenya, Tanzania, Somalia, aboard Flight 93 and the USS Cole, at the World Trade Center and at the Pentagon, to name a few. Our Constitution tells us that adhering to such enemies, giving them aid and comfort, constitutes Treason. Selecting for foreign national subversives against the United States, Progressives are, in theory and in fact, adhering to self-declared enemies of record which, by definition, is a treasonable offense punishable by law.
Where expert testimony has been given regarding the anticipated loss of life among our troops should the ACLU succeed in this endeavor, any and all members of Congress supporting this Leftist effort should be impeached. To value imagined ‘rights’ of a foreign national terrorist over the lives of our citizens – men and women in the uniform of the United States Armed Forces – is unconscionable.
