I agree completely, bring all of our troops home and let the rest of the world worry about it's own defense for once, but I'll fight against any defense spending cuts tooth and nail if we do that. That kind of action, while correct, would lead to us either standing aside while the rest of the world goes to war (and I don't see us standing aside for long) or we're going to have to finally deal with the fact that all cultures are not equal and some do not deserve to survive. I'd love to see us finally come to grips with this idea again and rid ourselves of this notion that diversity is the same thing as righteousness, but at this point I don't see it happening unless we bleed for it.
