I’m starting to learn what the Democratic Party is all about when it comes to how they would fight the GWOT “ongoing military operations throughout the world,” assuming of course they choose to fight against Islamism rather than sit down and sip tea while wearing a hijab.  It’s an interesting comparison between the two political parties in the United States, where the Republican Party leadership has refused to meet with those who are directly funding and supporting groups who have pledged to anihilate the United States, Democrats meet with them and even share bungled diplomacy.

But if Pelosi’s trip to talk with Bashar Assad wasn’t enough, House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer’s (D-MD) sit-down with the grandfather of Al Qaida, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, the modern Islamist and jihadist movement, etc. is pretty clear in its intentions.  Though Hoyer now denies he met with the Muslim Brotherhood, that’s news to the group.

What’s interesting about this meeting more than the Assad meeting is the DNC talking point for the past three years or so.  The talking point is that President Bush has alienated United States allies, though we must conclude that only means France even though France is still in Afghanistan.  But what does meeting with the banned Muslim Brotherhood group do to one of our few allies in the Middle East in Egypt?  What does tabeling a censure for Iran taking British hostages before rushing off to meet with those who are sworn enemies of the United States do to our ally Britain?

Following Pelosi’s trip to Syria, Peloso claimed she was not presenting an alternative foreign policy despite her entourage expressing just that prior to meeting Assad.  We must conclude this was the case with Hoyer’s meeting too, that Hoyer would not present an alternative U.S. foreign policy.  Why then does the MB believe the meeting could be a start to something new?

However, most analysts would agree that if an understanding between the MB and US succeed to put Egypt on a clear path for real democracy and genuine reform; it could certainly promise a wider and more effective cooperation to resolve other more complicated Middle East problems.

If Pelosi and her crew want to present an alternative foreign policy despite that being against the Constitution by the way, shouldn’t she present it to the American people so we know what that is?  While we’re waiting, we do know part of that Democratic foreign policy.  It involves negotiation with those who aid our nation’s enemies.  Oh, but the Muslim Brotherhood is a peaceful movement, just as they were peaceful when they formed in the 1920s with a secretive, militant offshoot.
