I am very concerned about the effect that killing the deal will have on our troops. Many people have fought and some have died to win not only the war but the hearts and minds of the Arab people. How will it look if now we turn around and basically say all you Arabs suck. Congressmen and Senators that have voted for, talk up and supported this war now seem to have lost their courage when it is time to face the heart and minds issue here at home. Maybe they think it would be better for Iran to win hearts and minds. Iran seem to me to be very busy trying to do just that.

That's a very keen, thoughtful and insightful comment.

Well done!

Good post. You're the first one I've seen mention that angle.

Welcome to FR.

Very interesting thought.

Thanks for that, and your screen name is great.
