I know I sound like a terrible person when in fact I'm frustrated. I don't want war and I don't want to have to kill people. But when we have to send our kids off to battle then we as a nation must commit to winning. If we aren't going to do that then don't send our boys (they aren't even men yet) off to die.

Iran is a problem. Negotiations wont work with them and they are clearly a danger and getting more dangerous by the day. Syria is more than happy to feed the chaos. Pulling our troops isn't the answer. We need to ratchet up the effort and either Iran and Syria will see the light or their going to experience a dismal event. I'm irritated enough to say light 'em up but I'm compassionate enough to admit thats not what I want. Those countries have some giving back to do - some concessions to make. I want Bin Laden and I expect Iran, Afghanistan or Pakistan to deliver him.

I'm going to be Veruca Salt here - I want that guy NOW - not a month from now - now! Hand him over, moderate you nuclear ambitions and maybe we wont wipe you off the planet. Failure to meet our demands will result in something I don't want to do. Work with us or start training your people how to duck and cover. No more fuckin around. Meet the demands or we'll be forced to pull out the big stuff
