Raising the issue of WWIII again...
Sunday, November 19, 2006
THe dark picture of WWIII has been raised again by Abizaid.
Army General John Abizaid compared the rise of militant ideologies, such as the force driving Al-Qaida, to the rise of fascism in Europe in the 1920s and 1930s that set the stage for World War Two.We shouldn't expect anything different from Johnny. He warned Congress against setting a withdrawal timetable.
"If we don't have guts enough to confront this ideology today, we'll go through World War Three tomorrow," Abizaid said in a speech titled "The Long War," at Harvard University's Kennedy School of Government in Cambridge, outside Boston.
He'd love more troops, more power, more freedom to do what he does best - diplomacy through bullets.
