THE DRAFT ???

Come on people let's be real. If we plan on staying in the Middle East we will need a military draft. The President is a liar! Our troops will be picked off more efficiently if their numbers aren't brought up. Let's do the numbers. We have 16,000 troops on the ground in Afghanistan. These troops live in very small pockets in the country. Warlords still control most to the country and Bin-laden makes his home there. I picture our troops in groups filled with uncertainty much like the Gazelle on the African plains on the look out for lions. That's not the way the Greatest Fighting Force to ever walk the earth should behave. We have less than 40,000 troops on the ground in Iraq. We control a lager portion of the country and we have loses everyday. We are even attacked in our own Green Zones. I don't believe we have any green zones left at this time. That's not the way the Greatest Fighting Force to ever walk the earth should behave. New York city has 40,000 Police officers on duty and in control of the entire city. New York is not a War Zone (Some will disagree) and Iraq dwafts it in size. There are no (Active) insurgents in NYC and the weaponry is non-existent. How in the hell can we control Iraq or win the war on terror with out a draft. Oh yea I forgot we are training the Iraqi’s to control the terrorist and the country. Hello, when we train and arm the Iraqi people, we are training and arming the insurgents. They are one and the same. Those weapons and training will be used against our troops. This has happened over and over again. History has proven this fact. It's Ironic that over the past 50yrs our troops have been killed by troops and weapons brought and paid for by the United States government and U.S. business. This has been a huge windfall for the businesses that play the game. It feels great for my tax dollars to pay for the weapons and training today that will kill our troops tomorrow. You ask for the solution? Here's the solution. I must say I hate the war in Iraq, I feel it is illegal and unjust. War should not be for profit. We should not be feeding people in the day and killing these same people at night. War should be fought to win. When we commit troops I feel they should be given a chance to win. The enemy should be crushed and brought to their knees and the land be made the 51st and the 52nd States. If we are not willing to do this we should not commit troops. I would not have sent troops to illegally invade Iraq. I would have committed them to terrorist states and terrorist. I would have loved to vacation in the new state of Saudi Arabia. Instead we have highly trained troops getting their body parts blown all over the streets in Iraq. These are fighters not crossing guards; it’s a great insult for a Special force soldier to die this way. Really people ask yourself, how long will the first Mc Donald’s, Wal-Mart or Sears be left standing in Iraq? Would you work there? Would you insure those businesses? WE CAN”T REBUILD THERE! PERIOD!
