My best friend is an SF medic who has done three tours over there. He told me several years ago that no matter how many of them we kill, after we leave nothing will have changed.

Probably not. That region is a war torn shite hole if I've ever seen one. I could see us propping up our homeland defenses big time and increasing unmanned aircraft and naval presence in the region if we want to insure a more stable pull out.

We really have two options. 1) be in the Middle East forever and create a moderately stable region, or 2) pull out and have the region in disarray.
Both options suck. The world would be a better place if we let Israel do what it wants to do with those people.

Precisely why we need to stay over there and do our best to contain them. They're not like the Vietcong. They will spread and create terrorist networks all around Europe and Asia. They have the potential to be much bigger if we leave.
