Frist: New York Times Should Read the NIE… Ouch!

Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist released this statement late this afternoon:First and most importantly, the NIE makes clear that our efforts to destroy al-Qaeda in the past five years have made significant progress, “United States-led counterterrorism efforts have seriously damaged the leadership of al-Qa’ida and disrupted its operations.” Our intelligence personnel recognize that it is no accident that the terrorists have failed to strike us at home since 9/11, even if the Democrats don’t.The NIE also presents a stark assessment that “the global jihadist movement … is spreading and adapting to counterterrorism efforts … [and] increasing in both number and geographic dispersion.” But it repeatedly states that failure in Iraq … the inevitable consequence of the Democrat policy of retreat … would dramatically harm our fight against these murderers, “perceived jihadist success [in Iraq] would inspire more fighters to continue the struggle elsewhere.”Crucially, the NIE supports the President’s contention that success in Iraq, the central battlefield in the War on Terror, would strike a grievous blow against the terrorists and dry up their support, “Should jihadists leaving Iraq perceive themselves, and be perceived, to have failed, we judge fewer fighters will be inspired to carry on the fight … If democratic reform efforts in Muslim majority nations progress over the next five years, political participation probably would drive a wedge between intransigent extremists and groups willing to use the political process to achieve their local objectives.”The declassified judgments on the NIE present a sobering look at the threats we face five years into the War on Terror…
