actually the mommy thing , judgement by peace activists in eu, america etc. We can win any war , yet we put our troops in danger because of world politics. I have serious conflict over sending troops into Iraq and have their hands tied and lose our men and women lives over internal politics that may go on for several more generations.

the same goes with afghanistan. we fight plus a few other countries but for the most part it is ignored by the rest of the world. It seems they would rather have their social benefits vs independence and security long term. I guess in the end places like France just give up parts of their country to these madman and eventually their social life and independence.

I am honestly peeved, Ichy. If our President and Generals on the ground in Iraq, now think that we need more soldiers, (and the Left has been bellyaching for years that we did, quite contrary to the Generals on the ground at the time)... and the LeftDems ans even some of the Repubs have a non-binding resolution like the UN does, but the enemy will use as a "propaganda paper"....HOW can we really even think we should send more soldiers in????

The LeftDems and RinoRepubs are ANTI-Victory. Period.

If they DARE vote, actually vote, this way....we should pull out immediately (it will take months to pull out as it did in VN)...The loss of Life and the blow up of Iraq, and possibly the ME in total will be on their hands.

So will the American blood that will be shed because of their Leftist action if the murdering barbarians hit the US in ANY way just one more time.
