Nuts!

To Bin Laden's offer for a truce in the War on Terror. So says the NY Sun:

It would be nice to think that this would present an opportunity for the antiwar crowd to reconsider its approach. For it is clear that Al Qaeda has underestimated not only the president but also the American people. Far from bin Laden's boasts that his holy warriors are succeeding, his offer of truce is an act of desperation. After all the terror Al Qaeda has sought to inflict in Iraq and Afghanistan, it has been unable to prevent successive and successful elections and the writing of constitutions. When the Nazis offered McAuliffe an honorable surrender at Bastogne, America had been at war a long time and everyone was tired. The end of the Third Reich was still six months away. McAuliffe knew what to say. Today there is near Bastogne a "Nuts" museum to honor his spirit. Too bad Mr. Bin Laden didn't stop by and learn something.

So say we all!!
