And notes:94% of soldiers & Marines in Iraq have been shot at
86% know someone who was seriously injured or killed
77% have shot at or directed fire at the enemy
68% have seen dead or seriously injured Americans
51% have handled or uncovered human remains
48% said they were responsible for the death of an enemy combatant
28% said they were responsible for the death of a noncombatant
It's not enough that they are exposed to intense combat conditions 10-12 hours a day, seven days a week, for months on end, but this is the first war in our history where they have not been permitted to rotate in and out of a rear area where some measure of rest and recreation was possible.
This is the first war I know of in our history where you don't just serve your deployment. You serve it knowing you will have to go back, and the whole time you are "home" you are training for more combat for your next deployment, and then you have to go back.
And then you have to go back.
Just when will the job be done, Georgie? Because it looks like a quagmire to me.

The job will be done when America is destroyed, or when he is stopped.
What drives these people? Do they think having it all means they won?
What are they ensuring for the future? Do they really think Americans will continue our happy over-consuming little lives while the rest of the starving world stands idly by? Do they really think we are as indifferent as they are to human suffering? Do they really see eternal war?
What are they ensuring for our future?
Well, the plan is for the elite to survive, and the rest of us to serve them or die. Got it?
But then the elite will spend the rest of their lives in terror of an uprising, fearful of servants putting poison in their food, afraid of their money being stolen, not being able to trust anyone....
Well... some good might come from this new world order...
