Thank you, nopardons. I realize that my words are harsh, but I see no other way- like the soldiers who signed on for service in WWII, we are "in it for the duration." There will be only one at the end...

I'd say realistic,rather than harsh.

We didn't start this war,but wse're the ones qwho'd better finish it.

This isn't some T.V. show;this is real life.War is bloody and nasty and long.If we aren't in it for the duration,we'll lose and so will the entire world.
