We are in day three of a 30 year war.

That is what makes this whole thing so preposterous. How can an elected government like ours possibly make plans for a 30-year war if it can't even be certain today that it will even be around to execute these plans after January 2005?

If they thought it would be a 30-year war, they should be starting the draft.

You write "That is what makes this whole thing so preposterous. How can an elected government like ours possibly make plans for a 30-year war if it can't even be certain today that it will even be around to execute these plans after January 2005?"

Because it is the right thing to do and yes someone else will eventually lead us to victory. Just like Reagan did in the cold war.

If we do not start, we will not finish.
