Augs,
Why does it always have to resort to name calling? Tempting as that sounds

, I'm not shoving beliefs down your throats. Just offering the possibility of a different perspective.
Yes we rely on our American neighbours.
Yes they are brave and strong.
Yes they are great humanitarians
Yes they are a super power
YES YES YES
But you can't stomp on anyone who offers a perspective to broaden your way of thinking.
That's why in substance rehab you have INTERVENTIONS.
That's why you can have your Supervisor fired.
That's why you don't line up for toiletpaper in Russia.
That's why some of us think Pewter is the best H2 color.

THAT'S WHY YOU THE PUBLIC SHOULD BE IN CONTROL OF YOUR ELECTED GOVERNMENT.
Just think if the Admiral listened to his XO and put the fleet out to sea. Could lives been saved at Pearl Harbour? Or had he at least considered the possibility of the vunerability. Could he have taken extra defensive measures?
What is happening in IRAQ is a tragedy. All those men and women. But that's been said before...
NOW think of what has happened. IRAN is the next in succesion. It was and IS a MORE potent threat and now more advanced. This is the scariest of all scenarios. THEY HAVE THE WEAPON way before we were speculating about Iraq.
Too much time has transpired. IRAN was given the luxury to build. Now it's an uphill battle.
World support? Well, you guys never needed it anyways.
Accept the fact that more Braves will die.
Who dropped the ball on this one? Can it be undone? Could you have done it another way? Attack the obvious first?
I suppose if there were no opposition, or disagreements, campfires would be alot more boring.
