I understand the frustration that comes from watching most of this from a far.
With that said, your comment is completely false! - We are not pussy-footing around in the least! -
Our shooters are conducting raids and killing terrorists daily and nightly - 7 days a week. In both Iraq and Afghanistan (and probably a few other unmentionable places) -
Our soldiers are bringing freedom and the value of self-worth to a region that has been denied both for far to long.
We are systematically, deliberately and unconventionally destroying Al Qeade and the terrorists within Iraq -
Pussy-footing around.....I think not....and neither do our brave soldiers who are putting their butts on the line every minute of every day.
I am not a soldier so I try to be careful about too much arm-chair warrior comments. What I do know that this war is different then in the past. A stage of having to identify who the enemy really is and where he is has been introduced.
I think we are just firmly getting a grip on this fact and as you mentioned, Khaosai, the enemy is now facing systematic destruction. We may be in the modern age of warfare, but it takes time to liberate an country and then eliminate the remaining terrorists. I would say we are doing just fine.
Thank you for your service, my American brother. I support you risking your life daily for our way of life and our mutual famalies. May you shoot straight and make them pay for declaring war on us.
