Cheney sez, "Enormous Damage" done to al Qaeda |

![]() The enemy, he said, wants to recreate a “Caliphate” -- or supreme Islamic state -- that stretched from Spain all the way to Indonesia. “They want to topple the regimes that are there today,” Cheney said. “They want to kick the United Sates out of that part of the world. They want to destroy Israel, and they want to equip themselves with weapons of mass destruction.” The terrorist strategy in this is to break U.S. will. “They can’t beat us in a stand-up fight. They never have. But they are absolutely convinced they can break our will,” Cheney said. He added that the enemy thinks the American people don’t have the stomach for a protracted fight. Allies also feel this doubt. He said Afghans and Iraqis “want to know if they stick their heads up if the United States, in fact, is going to be there to complete the mission.” |
