Thanks for confirming that you do not support our troops. "Scummy" is too kind a word for you.

War with Hitler was a war of choice, too, you ninny. Sometimes one just does what's right because it's the right thing to do. You obviously don't understand. Getting tired of your foolishness.

Plenty of other generals obviously disagreed with Shinseki. Very classy of you to be a monday morning quarterback.

If you want to be helpful, why don't you just set forth, concisely and in detail, a military, political, and economic plan to resolve all of the Middle East issues, in the space of an SI post? From your carping and needling, you obviously think you're capable of it.

Unless you have evidence that proves otherwise, I'll stick with my long-standing assessment that you're one degree above idiot.

Barring your substantive and suitable response to the above, I'll leave you with Terrezzaaa's patented all-encompassing response: SHOVE IT!

The war in Iraq is a war of choice. It is not a war of necessity


Every war is a war of choice. No war is a war of necessity.

A country can choose to attack another country, or it can choose not to.

A country that is attacked can choose to go to war to defend itself, or it can choose not to.

All choices.
