You DO realize that we had 1% of today's population at the time of the Revolution, so the equivalent deaths now would be 5,500 per month? You DO realize that your comment is therefore the equivalent of saying, "The US should never fight a war, any time, for any reason."? You DO realize that if George Washington and the others had held your views, we would be playing "God Save the Queen" before baseball games?
Or to use other examples, you DO realize the US would have split in half forever at the time of the Civil War? You DO realize that the Nazis would be controlling Europe today?
You DO realize that your comment is geopolitical nonsense?

There are things worth dying for. Haven't we lost American lives in the Balkans preventing the extermination of the ethnic Albanians (Muslims) by the Serbs? What is the difference....... someone please tell me? Guess we can only lose American lives under Democratic presidents protecting ourselves and others. Some people don't have the courage to risk their own life for any ideal, no matter how good it is.
