Im retired from the Air Force, and my opion is just that mine. Our country closed all those military bases, cut down the man power we had on active duty, De-commissioned all our ships, closed down our Missile silo's. Have you people totally lost your mind's. The military is the only entity keeping this country safe for you to do anything. Open your eyes people, we're opening ourselves up for the total defeat and destruction of the U.S. You better re-think about what is going on.

I agree. If we were to "stop for a cup of tea" right now, our country would just be bombed again. Most people don't look at the war logistically though... or they think they do, but they don't fully understand the position our country is in. There will always be war because we are people. People fight. One wrong word is said and the next thing you know, someone is bombing your buildings and murdering your children. If we didn't have the military protecting our borders and keeping people at bay in their own country, this country would not exist for long.
