Ruined military?
Spoken like someone who has no idea what the military thinks or how they work. Watch and see who they vote for.
BTW, if you're going to do a snap turn onto a new subject, let me know. We were discussing if the U.S. was safer, and specifically, if we are creating new terrorists by invading Iraq.
My thesis is that if any new Islamists are rising to the battle, if any new terrorists are planning attacks on the U.S., that they would have done so with the same eagerness had we only invaded Afghanistan and never touched Iraq.
Of course, since that negates your entire argument, I can see why it's being dodged.
