What troubles me is that if the american soldier feels that its nation will always hang them out to dry when the $hit hits the fan, a Milai over and over, then maybe god forbid they will not fight when asked unless they deem it a worthy fight not because a civilian overseer tells them to fight. Then on that day will be the end of the republic.

Maybe the NYTimes and its ilk can muster up a fighting unit to do the heavy lifting instead. Yeah right!!

We need to fight back at what some in the media/press are trying to do

This is a worthy, just, and necessary fight.

Those who do not support the war do not support the soldier.

It is that simple...no matter what they say.

The soldier needs to know that what he does is just and necessary, because it's so costly, so brutal, so life-demanding (sometimes literally), that the only way to justify one's presence is to believe it is for a greater good.

Take that away, and you've taken away everything.

And not one person has given one sufficient reason why the war effort is not worthy, just, and necessary.
