Of course you do...it makes it easy for you to justify their behavior.





 
WWII was a large scale war with serious consequences for losing.  There 
was an undeniable
threat of such size that a national response had to be made.  It's easy 
to get behind
that.

leave Afghanistan
that some terrorists will make another attack here at home.  Compared to 
possible invasion
of our country, this pales in comparison.  We've stepped up our actual 
security a little
bit, we've increased out security theater a lot, and we've learned it's 
best to attack
box-cutter wielding hijackers as citizens on planes no matter the cost.

what was leaked.  I just wanted to make it clear that WWII and what we 
have now are not
even comparable.

the invasion
will fail, the war will be lost, and soldiers will die in vein. Not one 
of the hundreds of
reports in that room said a word of the plan. In fact, they helped cover 
the plan.

the military putting their lives on the line, there would be NO press. 
These people are
traitors to  their country, clearly and simply.
