If you refer to Iraq as a “quagmire”,
or “another Viet Nam”, then you my friend either
smoked way too much dope in the 60s & 70s
or you were not around for the 60s and the 70s.
A bad day in Iraq, 16 GIs killed, was a good
day in the Nam where often times casualties ran into the hundreds,
and many planes were lost, and crews killed or captured. Before
you start chanting the mantra of the day from your leftist leaders,
know what you are saying is fact.
If you have a plan for Iraq, let’s
hear it, if not, then shut your damn mouth before you get more
GIs killed. Yeah, before YOU get more GIs killed. Your behavior,
your rhetoric gives aid and comfort to an enemy than thinks
we are going to pull up anchor and run. The Islamist feel that
if enough GIs die in this guerrilla action, the public opinion
will force the US out of the Middle East. Remember Somalia,
I guess Clinton felt it was another Viet Nam, another quagmire
and he ran. What did running get us? 9-11.
We are there for the duration, this
was NOT the “War of
Iraq”, this was the “Battle of Iraq.” This
is like a good ole fashioned wrestling match from the 70s, no
time limit, no disqualification. If you don’t know the
rules, you could get hurt.
That's
how I see it!
