REPEAT AFTER ME: THERE IS NO TERROR, WE ARE NOT AT WAR, ALL WE HAVE IS A CRIME PROBLEM

Half the web is pissing and moaning about the sentence meted out by a Seattle judge in the terrorst trial of Ahmed Ressam. The judge gave the guy the lightest sentence possible (22 years with 5 years off for time served) which means the guy will be out in 14 years and ready to kill again. Malkin leads the pissing and moaning but she and all her links fail to state the obvious:

the entire Left does not believe we are at war.
They still believe "terror" is merely a crime problem and that all benefits should be given to the accused, including those captured on the battlefield. The Left slobbers about the usual liberal social causes---the real criminal is our own government---bray for every hope for rehabilitation of people who are totally committed to jihad, and help once he gets out. The pretentious judge was appointed by Reagan and I leave it to you as to whether he is now senile or not.
