Brianna, why do you so hate America? Tone reflects the seriousness of those posts. We are not talking about sex in the Oval Office. We are talking about useless murder of Americans. Why do you, Brianna, so hate America as to not even criticize torture, extraordinary rendition, wiretapping without judicial review, secret prisons, etc. Same reasons why four died in O-Hi-O.
53% of America do not know. Even though a majority has only recently agreed with my four year old posts, still (as also happened during Nixon and Vietnam), a majority remain opposed to a necessary unilateral withdrawal. Yes "Who doesn't know this?" Many. Notice the many with so little grasp as to criticize Gen Dannatt.
The bastard even went to CA for a campaign fund raiser as a category 5 hurricane was attacking a city designed only for category 3. But again, how many must die?
Accurately defined long before "Mission Accomplished" was proclaimed were obvious facts such as 'no smoking gun', 'no strategic objective', and therefore 'no exit strategy'. Even 'mission creep' was inevitable. Iraq was denied both four years ago and still denied 2800+ dead Americans later. George Jr administration demonstrates contempt for the troops. Do you?
Probably 10,000 wounded Americans because so many had facts and yet still oppose a withdrawal. Many stay quiet and still oppose the inevitable - just like Nam. Withdrawal is not obvious to most Americans. Over 10,000 casualties for what purpose? So we can 'stay the course'? Bring it on? Religious extremists who actually do vote and who want Armageddon (most here do not vote) – do you really think they who do vote understand why withdrawal is our only option? Need we wait - like during Nixon - for that number to reach 20,000? How many thousand more will die before we admit defeat? How many more amputees need we create?
They don't decide to become a casualty. We make that decision. How many more must die?
