The Shape of Things

There's something happening here, writes Diana West--something nuts:
Something else is happening with the new war in Libya (can I be writing those words?). Just as time has marched on, so, too, have events. Barack Hussein Obama, without even perfunctory consultation with Congress, has committed US forces to military action against Libya at the behest of the UN and the Arab League (the latter has already changed its mind). But it is not sharia we are unwittingly making Libya safe for, as fatuous enablers of the democratic process in Islam; this time, we -- US, British and French forces -- are making the world safe for jihad.

We are openly fighting on the side of Islamic jihadis: Al Qaeda, Muslim Brotherhood, off-brand jihadists, complete unknowns (and culturally inculcated Jew-haters).
A line has been crossed. We need to un-cross it as soon as humanly possible.
Update: I called it nuts; Caroline Glick calls it "a descent into strategic dementia."
