AW gets it, unlike most of the World formerly known as "Western".

When this man speaks, I listen. Doing so never leaves me disappointed.

"When we commit our forces, it must be to win, and our civilian leadership must have the burning desire and passion in their hearts to set up our men and women to win.

It is a sad cycle of warfare when it is fought by politicians, and not warriors or statesmen. I am proud to have served in Desert Storm and Iraq, the third generation in our family to have served in combat. But as I watched newly promoted Major Bernard West last week, I wondered, what battlefield will he have to return to? Plato said it best, 'Only the dead have seen the end of war.'"

He is absolutely right. Having stood in battle myself, I would willing send my sons into battle with Col. West.

I will not commit them to battle under this regime. Rather, I would commit them to a citizen militia dedicated to to securing our Freedom against the tyrant now in power.

My ancestors came here to gain Freedom - no kings, no serfs. I will not consign my children to the serfdom my ancestors fought mightily to defeat.

America demands Justice for the Fallen of Benghazi!

O stranger, tell the Lacedaemonians that we lie here, obedient to their command.

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Common sense not so common amongst politicians.

When they announced the ceasefire of the first gulf war I was just shocked and angry.

Would anyone tell their doctor to leave some cancer in place.

Allen West is a good man!

I wish he was the first black president... he's a man we could all be proud of. :-)

While many would recoil at his comment to Greta that he would recommend our return to Iraq in light of recent events, I would not be so fast to cry ‘NO!’

My support, however, would be contingent upon a return with a defined mission: to win. Decisively and indisputably. To do that, you go in and do your best. You kick ass 9 (assuming you have the ability, and we do.) Screw the politicians and the asinine rules-of-engagement that have hamstrung our military effort and put our brave sons and daughters at a disadvantage.

Otherwise, just stay the **** out of these squabbling piss-ant countries and let them kill each other.
