. . . but I guess even hardened military men would find it hard to be cynical enough to think that after being attacked on USA mainland soil, for the FIRST time, and having 3000 people killed, that the same generation that lived the disastrous outcome of the Vietnam War, would learn from the mistakes back then, and wouldn't repeat them again.

If this kind of sh!t were happening in Afghanistan, you'd have a point. But since the war in Iraq has nothing to do with "attacks on USA mainland soil" and "3000 people killed," the analogy isn't really valid.

We are fighting Al-Qaida in Iraq right now.

Iraq is just one theater of the global conflict of which the WTC attack was a part.

If you believe that OKC was just two pissed off white guys than I have some swamp property loaded with alligators to sell you.
