What is all this "duty to retreat" nonsense?

Duty to retreat? Makes us sound like a bunch of French pansies! We are AMERICANS G-d dammit!



No surrender, no retreat...EVER!

What is all this "duty to retreat" nonsense?
Well I always figured that if I were faced with that sort of situation I would retreat as much as possible. I had never heard of this term, but I always figured that you better be cornered before you take action or you might be in big trouble (case in point, a guy in Prince Georges County, Maryland shot a convicted pedophile in his son's bedroom. the perv came in through the second story window using a ladder. guess what, P.G. County prosecuted the guy who shot the perv, sad and sick)

Why should the US spend decades holding back a religious civil war in the Middle East? Is it our job to prevent people from killing each other? How much American treasure are you willing to sacrifice? How much of the American taxpayer monies are you willing to waste in order to stay stuck in a neverending war?



The smart play would be to pull out--because we've wasted enough time trying to get both sides to reconciliate; seeing as to how they don't WANT to.



Or would you prefer to stick things out for another 10 years?



If that's the case, maybe you should do your bit for king and country and sign up. Make the war go a bit quicker!



Maybe after you spend 3, 4, 5, 6 tours or more in Iraq, you would start wishing that this whole charade would end and you could just go HOME.



That's what many of our soldiers want. They are tired of this conflict. There's no end in sight.



But six years in Iraq (and counting) is okay with you, right?
