How many politicians have spoken with ordinary Afghans about the decades of strife and killing? Who visits the free health care clinics that treat patients who haven't seen a doctor in years? Most of what we read involves the process within the Beltway. Personal attacks on prominent officials are made to herd the voters into line for the next election. We get power plays instead of positive action. They promise guns and butter, but they deliver losing wars and welfare peanut butter.
Instead of lectures on the immorality of war, liberals should emphasize the three wars lost. We have opened a fourth in Pakistan a nuclear power. Sooner or later, someone will figure out peace will come after they have nuked America.
They will assert it was a "just war" in self defense. Who would argue against that assertion?
