al Fedaban Americans

An inquirer from a few posts back, didn't understand. I used the phrase, my phrase, again yesterday. What's not to understand?

Smash al-Qaeda, Fedayeen Saddam (a paramilitary organization loyal to the regime of Saddam Hussein), and the Taliban together, link it to the Americans rooting against the US-led forces in the Middle East and you get al Fedaban Americans. What's not to understand?

I'm not going to list the names of the prominent al Fedaban Americans but like obscenity, I think we all know them when we see them or hear them. They can be individuals, they can be groups, they can be institutions.

Some possible indicators of those who are possible al Fedaban Americans:

They use the word "alleged" in front of every action committed by a terrorist but they assume U.S. Marines killed innocent woman and children at Haditha. They equate the U.S. Marines to Hitler's SS or suggest the U.S. Marines are worse than the terrorists. This is the most vile of all the possible indicators so I lead with it.

They repeat, almost with glee, the U.S. casualty count in the on-going war in Iraq; pretty darn vile as well, but lands second on the vile list. Oh, Munchausen by We Hate America by Proxy Syndrome as I may start calling it.

The rest are in no particular order.

They ignore that the President of the United States, the leader of the global war on terror, George W. Bush, has said over, and over, and over again that the war on terror is going to be a looonnngg one. Instead, they lament how long it actually is taking and suggest the President implied a quick win.

They sneer when you defend the global war on terror, the leader of the global war on terror or the U.S. Armed Forces. Yes, they sneer!

They support the troops but not the war but they have to tell you they support the troops twelve times during the conversation. This may appear inconsistent with some possible indicators above, but, yes, al Fedaban Americans come in a few shapes and sizes so the apparently conflicting possible indicators.

They make you feel like you should hide or remove your lapel American flag pin; they sneer at it when you engage them in conversation. Some actually repel as a vampire would repel at a crucifix hanging around a neck.

They promote only the hate-Bush wives, mothers, and daughters of those killed in the war. They stifle the voice of the wives, mothers and daughters of those killed in the war that support the President and the United States of America. Contrast this with a President that is constantly saying everyone is entitled to say whatever they want; he simply reminds folks that he disagrees with those rooting against America. Munchausen by We Hate America by Proxy Syndrome as I may start calling it; oh, I wrote this already; odd how this got repeated.

They have an explanation for why Sens. Kerry, Clinton and Edwards voted for the war in Iraq. They have an explanation for why Sens. Kerry, Kennedy and Clinton have voted for war funding every single time a war funding bill has come before the United States Senate. They reflexively repeat the phrase "Bush's War of Choice". Though I may subconsciously equate rabid liberals with being al Fedaban, this is my mistake as you can see by the votes of so many prominent rabid liberals.

They have an explanation for Rep. Jack Murtha's call last November to immediately bring the troops home and his vote, that same week, against bringing the troops home immediately.

They attack the U.S. Attorney General for the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 as though the U.S. Attorney General passed the legislation. The USA PATRIOT Act passed the Senate by 98 - 1! Al Fedaban Americans despise the Act but they don't hold their U.S. Senators accountable.

They think President Bush said, "mission accomplished".

I think everyone gets the point. This is not a comprehensive list of all possible indicators; I just banged out a few of the more glaring possible indicators this morning. If you know someone that fits 2 or more of the possible indicators above, there is a chance they are al Fedaban.

If you feel I personally attacked you with this list, guess what? . . . possible candidate.

If anyone wants to add to my quick list, shoot me a comment with your possible indicator attached.

Anonymous, ah, but you don't disagree. Why are we all being so silent in the face of such outrageous behavior? Wear your lapel flag! Call the person on it when they indict Marines. I stand by the indictment.

Anonymouses, love them! Love the Gitmo one the best. The detainees at Gitmo eat better than the Marines in Iraq and they get the "presumption of innocence" but the Marines don't. And the UN wants to close Gitmo?
