But, we will see a strong change in influence in that country if we wait long enough.. I'd say about 35-40 years of constant occupation. You know, just long enough for all the hardliners to DIE OF OLD AGE!!!<BR/><BR/>Rest assured however, that's exactly the plan that both Giuliani and Hill-Dawg have in mind...Aaron McBroomhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01202705204461380567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1769659900634709753.post-13711558952638013002007-12-03T21:02:00.000-05:002007-12-03T21:02:00.000-05:00I agree that there are wars that are unavoidable a...I agree that there are wars that are unavoidable and necessary. And then there are wars that are fought for no apparent reason. I've always thought that whatever we're doing in Iraq definitely falls in that last category. It seems that as the years go by, more and more Americans seem to follow that reasoning. <BR/>Thanks for your comments.Thierry Wernaershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18425107349559674853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1769659900634709753.post-74753029157137384632007-12-03T14:32:00.000-05:002007-12-03T14:32:00.000-05:00I was reading something Kissell said there on your...I was reading something Kissell said there on your blog about his father being a soldier in WWII and he wondered what he would think of today's political scene. My Dad was also a soldier in WWII and we used to "talk politics" alot. He wasn't a "warmonger" type and although he fought with dignity he saw first hand the damage war can do and felt a deep remorse, even though they say it was a "good" and "necessary" war (I can see that), but no war is "good". War is ugly. It seems no one really wins, the loser's anger just festers until the next war. But anyway, forgive me for going so long. My Dad was a gentle, humanitarian, peaceful and I was raised a "liberal Democrat", an animal that aquired a bad name in the last couple of decades. I wish my Dad's principles of freedom and hard work would come back. In other words, we do have to work for our freedom and keep a vigilance so no one takes it away, not terrorists or George Bush. To do this you don't need to go to war, you need to treat others with dignity, if we could change the world...Patriciahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01046027258273332119noreply@blogger.com
