I disagree with u over this and we have spoken about this many time..I see it more as indifference.....then u had a draft....now people have no stek in it. If they don't ever plan on serving they have nothing to worry about. I would like think that if there was a draft that folks would be more inclined to pressure Bush to WIN and pull out instead of pull out. I don't see the spiting or the hate..but if there was a draft u would..people just don't care as much either way.
I don't understand this line of reasoning. The US invaded a sovereign Iraq illegally. The UN authorization that Bush violated was predicated on Iraq's possession of WMDs.
What in god's green earth gives the US the right to decimate that country--some 66,000 civilians with whom the US has no beef are dead.
Now we are supposed to win? Win what? This is a 5000 year old tribal culture. We are going to change that with daily violence and a straw government?
A military excursion of this type in Iraq doesn't fight terrorism--it fuels it.
Since Bush's illegal war on terror started, worldwide terrorist attacks have grown exponentially some 600%, terrorist caused deaths are up 237%.
