In the meantime, you embolden our enemies to regroup, retrain and eventually, attack us again.

Let's put most of that blame on the administration which talked about a "religion of peace" while allowing so many Islamists to continue breathing air for seven years.

“Anybody who ever made the mistake of going into Afghanistan with an army got their ass kicked “

Not true, but oft repeated anyway.

That’a another thing I find comical about so called anti-war, their readiness to just wipe out over one fifth of the world’s population because they disagree with their religion.

And, we wonder why Muslims just might have a problem with us?

If the goal is to win this thing, like it or not, agree with their beliefs or not, we will need Muslims on our side informing us and infiltrating the enemy.

We did not have to wipe out every German - just the Nazi leadership.

Likewise we do not have to wipe out every Muslim. We do, however, have to wipe out those who insist on the imposition of sharia. Sooner, or later.

I’m holding you responsible for the PC attitudes of our “leaders” who never mention the words “jihadists” or “dhiminitude”, being too afraid to upset their leftist friends and losing their “respectable” conservative lable. Enough of your Political Correctness and blame shifting, have a good day I’m done responding to you.

Your my kind of war monger, I could vote for you, simply because I’m tired of the PC and the people responsible for the PC who are destroying this country with their spendthrift ways and their hate America attitude.

True but Alexander’s social engineering program failed as well.

Here, Here, any grouping of jihadis spouting off about sharia and dhiminitude need a dose of JDAMs followed by an infantry sweep to kill off the survivors. BTW the following might be unPC and upset the respectable conservatives, I don’t care where those jihadis are residing even if they have official Saudi funding they need JDAMs and they need em now.

Wasn’t just Alexander that took over the joint. The Arabs, Mongols, and others did so for hundreds of years at a time.

Spoken like a true Paulistinian.

Hold yourself responsible for the anal cranial inversion disorder you hold.

Oh yes, if you ask anybody that knows me, I am hte least PC person you’ll ever meet.

But, you continue with your own religious bigotry and see where it leads you, especially when we need people on the inside.

Agreed, but how do we do that while condemning the entire group and lumping them all together?

If we’d fought WW2 the way we’re fighting this “war on terror” (and I include Dubya as well as Obama) we’d still be working our way through Normandy and Guadalcanal.

No, we'd be trying to stop the Wehrmacht from crossing the Mexican border.

But that every military action our government commits to should automatically be considered righteous and unassailable is a bizarre position for conservatives, given their natural distrust of government in every other sphere....

In 2010, the ugly acronym, “Afpak,” will bedevil, befuddle, and consume the Obama White House that so unwisely and rashly ignored Gen. Douglas MacArthur’s wise warning to avoid land wars in Asia.

Why, then, after eight years, are we still there? And why was our southern border left open all during the Bush years and why is it yet open to this day? No, it was never REALLY about our security, it was and is about reshaping the mid east to OUR liking, something that won’t happen in a MILLION years, let alone our lifetimes. Get our folks home NOW, so we can prepare for what we have to do HERE.

It is NOT a conservative value to have our young people all over the world as they are now. It never has been.

Sorry, but you are not the sole owner of the term “conservative.”

I agree on borders not being sealed, but no one has effectively gotten any sealing other than Duncan Hunter, who no one wanted to support in 2008.

As for fighting terrorists, we ignored and poo pooed them for three decades while they continued attacking us and got September 11, 2001 in return.

And, it isn’t “reshaping the middle east to our liking,” but giving them the chance and security to esxcape the oppressive arm of the Jihadists and choose a free path for themselves.

Funny thing is, you Pauliacs keep crying about not having any of our people where they currently are by agreement with those countries, yet everytime such a policy has been followed, we end up attacked.

Anybody with an ounce of brains knows that should you succeed and pull everybody back, not only are weleaving our flanks unguarded, the left will begin dismantling our Military, as they did after WW1 and after we saw through the Clinton years.

How will that “prepare for what we have to do HERE.”

Oh yes, your shouting neither impresses me nor intimidates me. Sometimes, I wonder what some of you learned in the Military.
