With Friends Like These ...
by Jeremy at 1:29 pm EST, Jan 1, 2004

To judge by Libya's promise to give up its weapons of mass destruction, President Bush's get-tough approach in Iraq and Afghanistan has impressed our enemies.

Both Musharraf and Abdullah need the US at least as much as we need them. Neither one can stay in power -- or, most likely, stay alive -- if the radical Islamists prevail. In the long term, we do them no favors by allowing them to coddle our mutual enemies.

Max Boot writes in the New Years Day edition of the Los Angeles Times.
