It's up to Iraqis to guard Iraqi walls, NO WHERE does the Constitution say otherwise.
I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it

Deep down I think you know we NEVER should have invaded Iraq in the first place and have no be business being there any longer. They've had more than enough time/$$$ to stop being slackers and to take up their own fight. The failure is theirs, not ours.
The good general doesn't want to face reality, still fighting war that we will never win.
The high brass military types don't even care if they can't win as long as they get to play military games with other people's sons and daughters as their fodder. It's just a big board game to them.

No, what you don't have is any rational explanation for why you allege Iraq EVER represented any threat to my or any other American's freedom because it DID NOT.

Too bad you dont see the same qualities in Americas presidents.

I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to.
It's about time the generals start speaking up. Iraq has gone the way of Vietnam - our allies abandoned by Democrats with predictable results. Note that Obama was calling Iraq a success way back in 2011:
Son, we live in a world that has walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do it? You?
You want to guard the Iraqi's that ran from a force they could easily have over powered be my guest. They ran from terrorists that came in riding on jeeps while the Iraqis had tanks, helicopters and superior weapons and you think these people are worth dying for, I don't think so.
Let's pick another wall and please stop confusing movies with real life.

I suggest you stop spreading the LIE that invading Iraq had anything to do with protecting the freedom of any American and I don't give a damn about what you so mistakenly believe we've accomplished there. Perhaps you should learn the difference between offense and defense before invoking either as your alleged purpose, eh?
