As we foot around over there making no progress whatsoever, we continue to bleed precious American loves. All for the sake of looking good and appearing to be in control of matters. One guy from Washington was killed during his 13th tour. Why Obama and his staff cannot admit a mistake and pull us out is mind boggling.

How is it Obama's mistake? I don't recall him invading Afghanistan. At least he has set a schedule for pulling out.

Perhaps we should serve notice on the Jihadists that suicide bombings will be retailiated by an overwhelming response. Like leveling Mecca and Medina for starters.

Blood Feuds are not a pretty thing, want to think long and hard before playing that game.

My tounge and cheek comment about Mecca and Medina was of course over the top. But, the people who support and sympathize with the terrorists need a disincentive. Sucking up doesn't appear to work. In the last war where we were on the winning side we did some things that would be considered barbaric today. Things like the firebombing of Dresden and Tokyo, killing a plethora of "innocent people". Today that's consider unacceptable, but may have had some tactical value as a propoganda tool. When the people you support may very well get you killed, it dampens enthusiasm.

can't help but wonder how things would have been if we had concentrated on Afghanistan and not Iraq. We would have been finished there long ago and prepared for Iran now. Now we are tired of war and broke. Iran will do what they please.

Or, we could cut in half all the "aid" given to the Arab countries, give that aid to Israel and let them take care of Iran when they feel the time is right. Netenyahu (sp) said in the address to our Congress, something to the effect of: "we appreciatie all the backing the US has given us, we aren't asking for your troops, we have our own boots."
