We've burned about $4trillion on occupations in Iraq and Afghanistan since 9/11.
We are getting close to having as many troops commit suicide since 9/11 as we had citizens die that day.
We have lost nearly 5,000 troops in combat operations.
We have had tens of thousands of troops dismembered or permenantly disabled in those occupations.
Iraq became an even more unstable nation and has now officially adopted a constitution (under Bush) that makes Iraq officially an Islamic Republic (it was secular before).
The day we walk out of those 2 nations starts a countdown to when they become as hostile or even more hostile to America than they were previously.
Ron Paul tried to keep us out of these occupations all along.
