Better dead servicemen, than my wife and children.

Zinni's argument was the same one Clinton used, which only cost us 3,000 civilians and $100 billion. And the hit on the Cole. And the hits on our embassies. And the hits on our servicemen in Saudi Arabia, and other countries.

If U.S. civilians aren't worth the lives of a few "dead servicemen, why bother with defending the Country at all. I guess the issue is whether it's better to take the fight to the enemy, and fight on their tuff, or fight on U.S. soil. Or, whether anything is worth fighting for. Or, whether you'd only fight wars led by Democrats.

What are you babbling about? Gen Zinni has questioned a strategy. I thought that was what good Generals were supposed to do before sending americans to get killed. What in the hell does 9/11 have to do with Iraq? Show the link?
Who said not to fight for americans? Pull your head out.
