No, GWB did not get us into this mess we'll never get out of.  The terrorists and certain people of a certain faith got us into this mess we'll never get out of.  The sooner you and everyone else realize that the sooner we can get back to doing what needs to be done.

You sir, can kindly kiss  a soldier's ass. My Son is going back to Iraq for a third time in May with no Regret and a Clear sense of Mission. Both my Son and myself Thank George W. Bush for having done what is right.

Reading comprehension is not your strong point, I see.  The people who sent them were in AFG.  IRQ provided training areas.  It also provided a convenient place to kill them once the battle was joined.  Terrorists and wannabe's flocked to both IRQ and AFG once the fight started there.  I would much rather we kill them there than here.  At least GWB had the balls to take the fight to them rather than sit back and react when they hit us again.  You can be sure the current guy doesn't have the balls to do what needs to be done.  

BTW, what does serving this country have to do with being a liberal?  We have lots of libtards in the military.

As a parent myself, I fully understand being worried about your son.  I just got back from over there and though I didn't receive any direct fire, I took some indirect in both IRQ and AFG.  It's definitely no fun being there and having our guys die over there, but it sure beats having to fight the bad guys here.  If we don't take the fight to them, they will for dang sure bring it to us.  Like I said, I'd rather fight them on and blow up their territory than ours.

The wars are a shitty thing. Having personally seen the products of them far to many times from both fronts, I don't know what to think.

Its a big shitty quagmire and my only suggestion comes by way of B-52.

If worried suggest you find some something, maybe stare long and hard at that young Marine at top. If your Son wants to go.  IT's your job to support him, that means when he calls home your voice had better be reassuring. That means your faith is unwavering. When he calls home and needs to know your alright and he's doing the right thing. You'd damn well stand tall and tell him he's doing the right thing.

I don't know how many times I've pulled off to the side of a road to pray for my soldier when he was in Iraq. Pray because I had\have faith that he'll be fine and he's got it right with God should his time come.

It's not death that should bother a man, it's the way he dies that should concern him.


Psalm 91 is my prayer when urgency consumes me.

You gotta be shitting me.

Had we done nothing after 911, I'd hate to imagine the carnage alqaeda and the taliban would be wreaking on American soil right now.

You sir, are correct. There is so much ignorance and fail surrounding the understanding of the 9/11 attacks, it is laughable. The 9/11 commision report clearly indicates the country of origin of the attackers. Page 248, none were from AFG or IRQ, most came from Saudi Arabia. 9/11 Terrorist might have had training in AFG or IRQ, but did not come from there.

Keep in mind you will find many pontifications here about "the second shooter on the grassy knoll", but rarely will you find substantive facts.

I to am a former service member with 24 years of active service to sporty locations, including the aforementioned AOIs and believe GWB got us squarely into this mess, without a single thought to an exit strategy.

I sense undertones here about not being able to call a spade a spade.  IE:  What religion the terrorists are.

If there is an exit strategy, does 'winning' play a part in any way?

First of all, thanks to you and all others for their service to this fine country.  

From page "248"...

During the summer and early autumn of 2000, Bin Ladin and senior al Qaeda leaders in Afghanistan started selecting the muscle hijackers—the operatives who would storm the cockpits and control the passengers. Despite the phrase widely used to describe them, the so-called muscle hijackers were not at all physically imposing; most were between 5' 5" and 5' 7" in height.


So, does one go after the tail or the head of the serpent?


The other thing to keep in mind, regardless whether I liked or disliked GW, criticizing with hindsight is very easy to do to someome(s) that was working on the best knowledge (existent or not) at the time.  I remember attending numerous memorials following 9/11 as a firefighter and law enforcement officer at the time and I don't recall running into any civil servant, member of the military or private citizen that wasn't ready and willing to take the fight to the snake(s).
