I sure garbled by sentence in my hastiness ... oh well.
"If we can't be serious, we have no right to send young Americans out into the hell of war."
AMEN.
IMHO, it's past time, but not too late, to bring our brave troops home from those HELL HOLES!

Couldn’t hold them forever.
We should have tried them as “unlawful combatants” and shot them.

The Democrats lost Vietnam, and now they are losing Iraq and Afghanistan.
To: jazusamo
I completely agree, the amount of planning that went into WW2 was leaps and bounds ahead of this lame effort in Iraq and Afghanistan

If we learn nothing else from the bitter tragedy of the war in Afghanistan, it should be that we should put an end forever to the self-indulgence of thinking that we can engage in "nation-building" and creating "democracy" in countries where nothing resembling democracy has ever existed. I still think it can be done - but not by the liberal elites running things in DC.

No transformation of any enemy can even begin until they have been utterly defeated. In this case, the enemy is Islam. Until we accept that, we are in for a long defeat.

Well said, we have to fight them ruthlessly with a mission to win.
