NEVER.
What don't people understand about this? It is too wide spread.
This Madness in the Middle East is WORST than Vietnam. Because the enemy is not only throughout the ENTIRE Middle East, but in every country's backyard.

AND THE UNITED STATES HAVE WORN OUR TROOPS TO A FRAZZLE. THERE IS NOT ENOUGH OF THEM TO STRETCH ANY FURTHER.
Jesus, what exactly do you people who say you support our troops being everywhere, expect of them?
TELL ME, TELL EVERYBODY. WE ARE LISTENING.
Coalition troops in Afghanistan are too thin as well.
IRAQ, AFGHANISTAN, CUBA, S. KOREA, W. GERMANY and how many more countries? Should we pull them from other places?
These soldiers only have two hands & can only be in one place at a time. And how many EXTENDED tours do you think they can take? Which one will be the breaking point for them? An Exhausted Body & Mind makes for mistakes and death's waiting to happen. They are not Machines, They are HUMAN BEINGS.

YET THEY LIE AND SAY A MILITARY SPOKESMAN SAYS THEY ARE HAPPY TO STAY. YEAH I BET THEY ARE.
These bombs will never cease, these crazy people strapping them to their bodies will never cease. These people are crazed & THEY DON'T CARE IF THEY DIE.
DO YOU UNDERSTAND?
How in the Hell can you fight this mentality?
Yes there has always been Kamikaze's in every war. But not like these Radical Islamists. CHILDREN are lining up to strap bombs to their bodies, with their crazy parents blessings. They feel it an Honor.
Even the V.C. in Nam didn't encourage their young kids to do this.
Now I don't give a damn if your Democrat, Republican, Liberal, or Conservative. You must understand that this is a lost cause. We are fighting GHOSTS we can't even see. You never see it coming, and our troops are sitting ducks. How many lives are you willing to sacrifice for this slaughter?
There are posters who constantly anytime Vietnam is mentioned Rant, DON'T COMPARE THIS WAR WITH NAM.
WHY NOT?
It's the same F'N LOST CAUSE. Only this one I believe will be the worst. And I never ever thought it could any GET WORST than Nam. And the SAME NAM RANT IF WE LEAVE NOW,
THE ONE'S WHO HAVE DIED WOULD OF DIED IN VAIN.
HOW MANY F'N WALLS TO HOLD ALL THE NAMES DO YOU PEOPLE WANT BUILT?
HOW LONG DO YOU WANT TO WAIT?
ANOTHER 15 YEARS
58,237 LATER?
JESUS, WAKE UP.
BECAUSE A DRAFT IS GOING TO WAKE YOU UP, NO MATTER WHO IS PROMISING THERE ISN'T GOING TO BE THE NEED FOR ONE.
WAKE UP.
OUR TROOPS ARE SHEDDING THEIR BLOOD FOR A DRAFT DODGER, WHO HIMSELF WOULD NOT SERVE IN WAR.
ENOUGH.
Otherwise just blow the whole Middle East off the face of the earth. Because, this is the only way your going to stop this. And that is never going to happen, at least not from us.
SO ENOUGH.
I SUPPORT OUR TROOPS, I WANT THEM ALIVE.
Christ, our generation went to enough memorials during NAM.
I DO NOT WANT THE SAME FOR THESE SOLDIERS.
AND IN REALITY WE HAVE ENOUGH OF A WAR GOING ON IN EVERY STREET OF AMERICA.
THEY NEED TO BE MANNING OUR STREETS HERE.
