Why start the same thread over? Answer remains the same. Stay till the
job is done. Go in once, do it once, get it done and over with.

Never should have been there in the first place. The longer we stay,
the more Americans die needlessly, just to feed the ego of a lunatic
mass murderer.

Are you too young to remember Viet Nam? If so, here's how it works: Go
halfway around the world to a country that means absolutely nothing to
us and get plenty of our kids killed. (Make sure the war is unwinable.)
Piss off as many people and countries as possible, especially the
country you're "liberating." We're really doing a good job this time
because we're making enemies of every Islamic fundamentalist nutball in
the world. If things don't seem depressing enough, make it so a Marine
who fought on Iwo Jima can't light up at the V.F.W. That's what we did
here in Ohio, land of the free.

Actually I do remember Viet-Nam. A war that was winnable if left in the
hands of the military. But civilians in the White House were issuing
target lists (which did not include strategic targets such as Haiphong
Harbor or the rail yards of Hanoi) and promised Ho that these targets
would not be hit. Also the cutting of troop morale by those saying the
war was wrong. Hmmmm sounds kinda like now. Why not just support the
troops and let them do their job.

We are making enemies in the Arab world faster than we can kill them.

You are also making friends by building schools, hospital, water
systems, etc.

You say you remember Viet Nam. That may be, but you sure didn't learn
anything from it. That war--like this war--was NOT winnable. As far as
troop morale goes, the troops also showed patriotism by coming home and
marching in the streets against the Viet Nam war. One of the most
poignant moments of the era was the Mother of a dead soldier who marched
with us during Moratorium. She was heartbroken that her son had died for
no reason, and didn't want it to happen to anybody else's Mother. Go to
iTunes, buy "Universal Soldier" by Donovan, and get radical. It's the
only way to end this madness.

Why should it be the job of US troops to meddle in a country we know
nothing about and the only beneficiaries are big war profiteers like
Haliburton and Bechtel? If we spent half of the money we've spent in
Iraq on developing renewable energy resources in this country we could
stop using foreign oil entirely, start reversing air polution that
causes tens of thousands of premature deaths every year and help
reverser global warming. Is our outlook so limited and so negative that
we think American ingenuity cannot find a better way than total
dependence on Big Oil? There is a far better energy future in new
companies and new jobs developing new energy sources right here in this
country. We have nothing to gain in Iraq and everything to lose. And
spreading democracy has nothing to do with it. Democracy is on the ropes
in this country and we should be spending our efforts to help people
learn what real democracy is.

Had politicians let the military do as it was trained to do and not
given in to Ho Chi Mihn then the war would have gone to North Viet-Nam
and ended. All deals made with The People's Republic of Vietnam were
forgotten by the Viets when the Americans left. Where are the M.I.A.'s?
Where are the P.O.W.'s? Let the military do it's job and support your
troops instead of cutting them off at the legs. Otherwise prepare to
lose even more to terror attacks.

Your enemies know that you have one of the best fighting forces in the
world. A force which will stop at nothing to complete its mission. They
also know that the American people don't have the guts for it and that
by holding on they will win. Prepare for more body bags in your streets,
more emergency triage centers, more dead fireman and policemen, more
dead civilians. This is what you face if your troops are not permitted
to complete their mission.
