I've read several of your posts, and agree with much of what you say. I also realize there may be some alterior motives to why we are involved so much overseas, protecting, controlling resource interests etc. But just what if... What if troops in Afghanistan are keeping Pakistani nukes from falling into dangerous hands, or what if we stick it out, and are the force that ensure greater rights for women in Afghanistan/Pakistan? I can see you're raw about this, but understand there are many whom do feel they are fighting the good fight for good reasons. I agree in large part with your position on the draft.
