When can we celebrate 9/12 ?
Everyday seems like 9/11 to this veteran.
As the General said, "War is a racket." But he did make a couple of exceptions.
Just because we memorialize out veterans does not mean that we memorialize war.
When can we declare victory and end these wars?
It was shocking to me that on this day John McCain would come out in support of more "boots on the ground". Bad idea, Mr. McCain.
We should withdraw all of our troops. It has come apparent to some that the Shiite leadership in Baghdad does not know how to fight the ISIS troops. They are being led by the Ayatollahs and leaders of Iran. So, in effect, we are fighting ISIS for Iran.
What Mr. McCain seems to be suggesting is that we help Iran just a little bit more with more US troops on the ground? Are not "boots" the same as "troops"??
What we see in Iraq is a sectarian, religious, civil war. Saddams' soldiers are returning to their homes after they were stripped of their weapons and uniforms, whenever Maliki took over. They are a big portion of ISIS and the Sunni sect in Iraq. So America should step into the middle of this Civil War?? I don't think so.
The best way to honor our veterans on this memorial day is to not make more of us...
