you asked what i think, coleman...i think it stinks to high heaven along with all wars. and we are still there!
"I asked people when they thought the Gulf War was going to end?
"End?" I was asked. "Why, everyone knows, it ended years and years ago."
"Oh? Then why are there several thousand American troops still in Bosnia, The Gulf Region, Kosovo, and Korea?"
Sigh. Most people thought we only had a couple of hundred troops there. So I asked about Bosnia. You know? The country that President Clinton promised we would only stay in for a maximum of one year? 75 percent of those present did not know we had thousands of troops in Bosnia. Several thought we only had a few hundred still in Kosovo.
For that matter, how about the Korean War? That war "ended" nearly 50 years ago, and we have several thousand troops stationed there to keep it from flaring up again.
The cameras go home, but the troops remain silently behind. A complete listing of the military combat deployments of the past 10 years would shock most civilians. Many can't believe that we are still deployed to many of these places."- http://usmilitary.about.com/od/deploymentsconflicts/l/aadoyouknow.htm
donni, Bosnia, Korea and Kosovo are poor examples of your initial claims that we are a warring nation that steals the resources of the poor. What resources do they have donni? Be careful how you answer donni. I have been to two of those place extensively.
