Wishing doesn't win anything.

You are on the same course of another from this board who seems to think that the only way to serve your country is thru military service. That isn't tue and you know it. That opinion not only belittles AVGWarhawk, a member here, but also the work of the following US citizens who did not sere in the military, but certainly contributed to past war efforts.

That remark was aimed squarely at you for the below sanctimonious rhetoric as I said earlier so don't try dragging anyone else into it.

Unfortunately, wandering off as if nothing happened is not a realistic option. Democrats would like us to think that withdrawal would end all the problems. It will not. It will not end US deaths, but instead offer the US homeland and its population up to the slaughter that the leaders of other nations proclaim on an almost daily basis. Cowardice is not a strategy.

So if you consider these people as ignoring the truth then I will stand with them thank you very much!

First, those men served their country. That's a dead subject anyway. Second, you've tripped again. There is a disconnect here. The truth you ignore is the realities of Iraq and Afghanistan. The truth is that ugly choices have to be made. We have the best military in the world but they are set up for failure because of manpower. Our military is not big enough to handle both countries. It was never designed to occupy two countries. We are going backwards not forward. To succeed we need another 300,000 and I don't see that happening.
