VN was a waste, I think we should bring ALL our troops home from overseas, everywhere....

except maybe that island in the Pacific....Diego Garcia??

Diego Garcia is in the southern Indian Ocean, it's owned by the British, who years ago kicked out the natives, we in turn use it for refueling operations and an airbase in that part of the world. my cousin has been there on a consulting trip, turns out they dredged the coast to create more land area years ago, but that changed the wave action, and now the sea is reclaiming land...oops.

Good to know that Libya is more important that our own country's finances.

So the objective is to get the best results with out quagmires.

What makes since is to go in with a clear Objective to achieve the best result.

1 Smart Bomb from another Continent=ICBM There would be no quagmire

Smart Wars= Let NATO be the Cowboy

See the difference.

Look; neither you nor I see what the Generals see … so if it was a Good idea to Liston to the Generals in 2003, why isn’t it a good idea in 2011?

What's the difference ... ? That a Rhetorical question.
