Every foreigner is more valuable than an American, especially if they are in our military.

Back to reality do you think taking out the head of Irans terrorist operations was aimless?
If so were the 563 drone strikes ordered by Obama aimless?
I would observe you people had no problem with this when a democrat was doing it and if Iran escalates this into a war its because they know that their strongest ally will be right here in america.
Killing the Iranian general did nothing but spark up the possibility of either multiple terrorist attacks on Americans or a possible hot war with Iran. All of which was totally avoidable. Think. What would we gain as a nation from any of this? Absolutely nothing.

Obama's drone strikes were amoral and a waste of time. What does that have to do with what is going on now?

Well I'm sure if worse came to worse I could go back but there's just no need at the moment. Iran just isn't that kind of threat.

You can't join a militia after 38? Stop being cowards and find a way to join the fight. You want war then find a way to go fight it.

When you go fight that war he wont want to hear about your boring life story.

"If iran is evil so is America".

He does have all the marks of the john kerry jane fonda school of subversives. They make amusing neighbors but if war breaks out they require adult supervision.

You didnt explain how any of that was aimless. I also doubt you ever spoke out against obama.

You ask what we have to gain by killing the general responsible for the deaths of at least 600 americans.

Are you serious?

Just stop. We are both veterans and the military cannot use us now.
Pursuing this point is silly. We do have the right to be hawks, we volunteered when it was our time.

It is a bit like telling Brett Favre or Tony Romo to get back behind the center and take some more snaps if they want to talk about football games. The military much like professional sports is a young man's game.
