As you say, it’s a war. It’s a war with actual soldiers in actual battle in Afghanistan. Just because we don’t agree with the leadership and the decisions of that war (ROE, eg), doesn’t mean we can run off fighting the war in any direction we want. What kind of fighting force is that? Every man for himself? Is that your war strategy.
To those who say “this is freedom of speech”, I say: you are right. You have a strong point.
To those who say “this is war”, I say: wars are won by disciplined actions, not chaotic “self-expression”.
If you really believe it is WAR, then goddamn ACT like it’s war and have some respect for our TROOPS.
Wars have many fronts. The war in the homeland is different from the war in foreign lands. They require different strategies and tactics.
This tactic can actually help us define the enemy here at home and make it much easier to identify and fight the insurgents here in the US.
