Stay In Iraq For The Long Haul

LB,
There is a way to do that.

While we cannot ignore N Korea...I do believe it is time to pull the 36,000 troops out of there and simply tell NK that they become a wasteland if they attack the south. We are never going to fight another land war there anyway. The only logical solution to any NK aggression is to nuke them.

It is way past time to clear the rest of our (approx 60,000)troops out of Germany. We can relocate the hospital to Greenham Common, Sculthorpe or a dozen other locations in England.

I know many folks want to see the war ended today...But it ain't gonna happen. The war on terror is going to get bigger and wider. With Clinton's chopping 8 combat divisions from the Army...we cannot keep nearly 100,000 uniformed folks in positions intended to win the cold war.

I predict the draft gets reinstated within 3-4 years...less if we get a major attack or have to open another front.

The resolve of rough men is steeled by attacks like those we are seeing against US troops, Brits, Turks, Israelis etc. Fortunately for us the rough men are in charge. Those who prefer to play word games may do so...but we all know word games do not keep us free.

Living free has always been awesome, but it always cost a price. When American women finally comprehend that the muslim extremists intend to stop the education of their daughters and for all of them to dress in Burkhas...when they feel the threat personally, they will demand that their men fight.
