How many times have you heard the politicians should go to the front instead of sending others to fight?
Well it’s worse than that, they’re sending others, only giving them the equipment the pols think they need. Only the troops the pols think they need. Only the targets the pols think they need.

It’s a bad war. It’s an unjust war. It’s an illegal war. Blah, blah, blah......
Well maybe so, but it’s real and it’s here and now, we have to deal with it.
War crimes tribunal? Get real, only losers are tried and there’s not much chance of that, yet.
Get the reporters and politicians out and give the military the materiel they need to subjugate Iraq. Absolute, complete, and utter domain over Iraq, then we talk about freedom and self government.
Foreign wars are not won in Washington or in the media but they sure as hell can be lost there.
The politicians trying to micro-manage any war is a definite loser.
