I honor and support our troops. However, they've been sent on a mission in Iraq which was not necessary for US national security. That's not their fault. I hope they kill as many insurgents as possible, and they suffer as few casualties as possible. But taking down the tinpot Saddam (so that a chaotic situation would ensue in Iraq) was not necessary for US security. We had him boxed in, sanctioned and subject to intense overflight surveillance --- and besides, he didn't have a military worth spit and he had no WMDs. Castro is as much of a threat to US as Saddam was (and as much of a tyrant to his people), and I don't hear any calls on freerepublic for invading Cuba.
