Personally I don't consider the U.S. bad guys. I consider our President to be that.

When you have [edited out by Philip - offensive language] back home trying to tie the hand of the military and reveal secrets to the public, you have to tread a little more lightly.....cuz you know, you don't wanna offend anyone :rolleyes:

So I guess you've had a change of heart and are now feeling compassion for our troops fighting in this war you don't agree with?

Not at all ...just asking you to look at it from their perspective instead of labeling someone a 'leftist pvssy' ...see cuz just because someone disagrees with you doesn't mean they're leftist or liberal or whatever....cuz that's all relative y'know..... my position hasn't changed one bit ...It is the Army and those risks are assumed when you volunteer for service .....does it make it any more comforting to the parents?? :nope: ....(nice try though)

you fail

I'm a leftist ***** now, too? I've arrived! More of the Toby Keith macho bluster.

"and people say the US is bad guys"

The lies, fearmongering and opportunism on behalf of the current administration is what drives people to criticize the war and its architects. But of course, criticism equates to sedition these days.

You can't fail when you're not trying to accomplish anything, I was just stating the facts. You said "we're tired" as if you care.....which is why I was assuming that you've had a change of heart. Now had you said "they're tired", then it'd be different and I'd assume that your stance on the issue has gone unchanged........but whatever, I don't care either way.

What you and many other fail to see is that the more secrets that are revealed about US military strategy, the longer this war will draw out because you have to *****foot on the battlefield so the appeasers and cowards in the media and Congress won't hang you out to dry in public, like they've so eloquently done.

You don't have to agree with the strategy, but it is war, and last I checked, it wasn't supposed to be pretty and it damn sure isn't supposed to be fair.

You can be patriotic and believe that the war is unjustified and criticize it all you want, I could care less. It's when one purposely attempts to hinder the military is when ones patriotism comes into question, at least IMO.

Its a war, not our war, let them fight their civil war, see what happens and then if need be, step in, if its all ok, then bring the troops home.

I won't refer to the US as "they" as I am an American ...which is "we" ....Now if I said "i" you'd actually have an argument but as I said before

if we pull out now or do anything like the congress hurting our military from doing what we need to do, it is going to send a strong signal to the islamic terrorists that they have won and will attempt massive strikes it all a matter of time. They are just waiting for the right moment.

The media does not help at all nor do the whining left democrats.

Would that equate to also "outing" covert" CIA spys who are experts in nuclear arms proliferation among terrorists supporting nations? All for political gain?

I'm not aware of any other "secrets" being given away in the last 4 years other than this one. A freebie for Iran, and other countries looking for such information as well as CIA contacts.

A lot of the "leftest pvssies" are over in Iraq, fighting. Good call, Mr. uninformed.

To go back to the original article, good news is they are removing their own future terrorists! I wonder what they call this campaign, "Minors for Martyrs", "Underage Martyrs for Allah"? Do they get 72 virgins too?
