WHO IS FUNDING THE TERRORISTS IN IRAQ? [Cliff May]

According to U.S. News & World Report: "The list of suspects is long: ex-Baathists, foreign jihadists, and angry Sunnis, to name a few. Now add to that roster hard-core Euroleftists.

“Turns out that far-left groups in western Europe are carrying on a campaign dubbed Ten Euros for the Resistance, offering aid and comfort to the car bombers, kidnappers, and snipers trying to destabilize the fledgling Iraq government. In the words of one Italian website, Iraq Libero (Free Iraq), the funds are meant for those fighting the occupanti imperialisti. The groups are an odd collection, made up largely of Marxists and Maoists, sprinkled with an array of Arab emigres and aging, old-school fascists, according to Lorenzo Vidino, an analyst on European terrorism based at The Investigative Project in Washington, D.C. "It's the old anticapitalist, anti-U.S., anti-Israel crowd," says Vidino, who has been to their gatherings, where he saw activists from Austria, Denmark, Germany, and Italy. "The glue that binds them together is anti-Americanism." The groups are working on an October conference to further support "the Iraqi Resistance." A key goal is to expand backing for the insurgents from the fringe left to the broader antiwar and antiglobalization movements."

Oh good grief, but Euroleftists have been holding secret meetings for decades as they brunch away the hours deciding how to best destroy the United States. But if anyone in their right mind believes that ANY of these wealthy loons would wish to get caught financing a supply of dental floss that made it's way to a terrorists napsack then strike them off of the list of anyone in their right minds. It has forever been fashionable to erect big-boy tree houses from which to plot total world domination but from everything I've learned or heard about that's pretty much all they can do in this day and age.

ISLAM finances moslem terror. Or 99.999% of it. They do it through nefarious and not so nefarious means, and the till is getting emptier with every passing day. Weapons don't win wars (yes, the A-Bomb shut the Japanese down but we would have taken them out by conventional means if necessary), mass numbers don't win wars (not since the days of archers and pikemen), what wins a war is leadership, logistics, and luck. Militant Islam has the leadership (not brilliant leaders, mind you, for as long as there are young men and now women eager to reap a heavenly reward there'll be candidates for stupid things that sometimes even work), for the Koran gives total military authority to whomever has risen to the stature of mullah-honcho, EVERYONE gets lucky now and then, and at first the logistics were relatively easy to come by.

Not so, anymore. Incredibly sophisticated eyes and ears are searching for anyone who would aid and abet the latest moslem quest to regain the holyland. Even if Bill Clinton were still in office times would be tough for the crazed sand fleas, and with W at the helm...even with all of his weaknesses...things are bleak indeed for the men that would be king.
