3. now, it's only the question of how many more American soldiers' deaths
will the American public tolerate....

it's going on THREE years now in Iraqmire....Vietnam lasted about 14 years....

the draft will happen soon...in Vietnam, it took a while for that to sink into the American public's mind, even after large numbers of young men were being dragged out of their homes and dorm rooms....even after large numbers of young men got out in the streets to protest in 1968, it still took SEVEN years to shut down the giant pentagoon and their war profiteers...


Iraq is in total chaos...another total loss for the great American military...a war on a third world country that had been crippled by our embargoes for over 10 years...and the pentagoon screwed that all up....it's embarrassing really...
