Democratic Senator Lieberman Supports Republican President Bush On Iraq

Newsmax Staff / Aimee Herd reporting : Dec 2, 2005  Newsmax

"It is a war between 27 million and 10,000; 27 million Iraqis who want to live lives of freedom, opportunity and prosperity and roughly 10,000 terrorists who are either Saddam revanchists, Iraqi Islamic extremists or al-Qaeda foreign fighters who know their wretched causes will be set back if Iraq becomes free and modern."

Sen. Lieberman As some in the political scene seemed eager to jump on board the criticism of President Bush's speech on the war in Iraq this week, a well-known democrat stood his ground in support of the President.

According to a Newsmax report, Senator Lieberman, having recently returned from his fourth trip to Iraq in 17 months, wrote in an opinion piece for the Wall Street Journal, "The Iraqi people are in reach of a watershed transformation from the primitive, killing tyranny of Saddam to modern, self-governing, self-securing nationhood - unless the great American military that has given them and us this unexpected opportunity is prematurely withdrawn."

"People are working their way toward a functioning society and economy in the midst of a very brutal, inhumane, sustained terrorist war against the civilian population and the Iraqi and American military there to protect it," continued the Senator.

"It is a war between 27 million and 10,000; 27 million Iraqis who want to live lives of freedom, opportunity and prosperity and roughly 10,000 terrorists who are either Saddam revanchists, Iraqi Islamic extremists or al-Qaida foreign fighters who know their wretched causes will be set back if Iraq becomes free and modern."

"We are fighting on the side of the 27 million because the outcome of this war is critically important to the security and freedom of America. If the terrorists win, they will be emboldened to strike us directly again and to further undermine the growing stability and progress in the Middle East."
