The Bleeding Hearts will say that taking the fight to our enemies only resulted in creating a bunch more little enemies. There is a little bit o' truth to that, which is why I prefer nukes. I would have solved the "terrorist problem" 48 hours after 9/11 and saved us trillions. Go big or go home. This is why I'm not the Commander and Chief. Not because I would nuke the SH!T outta people, but because I would have saved us Trillions (and thus NOT enriching the Military Industrial Complex).

There's a lot of mis-placed Military hate in this thread, which is puzzling & disconcerting because EVERY. SINGLE. LAST. THING. in your modern, comfy 1st World American life was provided to you in some manner or another from our past & present men and women in uniform.

Way to sleep under the blanket and then question the manner in which it was provided.

So if YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH, I heard Canada & France are accepting applications.
