Just because I point out that there have no substantial efforts to prepare the citizenry or the homeland for defense(should have been the first thing), is not an attempt to stop or dissuade from attacking enemies. Good, destroy Saddam, should have been done 10 years ago(wonder why not?) As for leaders and major cities being targets, they are big targets, with big pay and intensive preparations for saving their lives. Joe Bloe is forgotten, as is defense. All is sacrificed to the offensive side.

There is little that can be done to prepare a people sticking its head in the sand as fast as possible. The people of this nation are unwilling to face reality and care nothing about truth or righteousness. It is self-destructing in every way imaginable. Until the mass media's influence is totally destroyed there can be no preparation for defense.

Saddam was not destroyed 10 yrs ago because our word had been given to our allies that we would not. This and the unwillingness to leave Iran without any major opposition in the area saved his sorry ass. I understood this though did not support it.

Joe Bloe is always forgotten and for good reason; he is forgettable. Happily willing to shut out the rest of the world as long as he is supplied with beer, baseball and mind-rotting tv shows. He has no one to blame but himself.
