Death is never acceptable in a war. But it is what it is all about. It is about killing the enemy until they are all dead or surrender. Muslims have been attacking Americans for a might long time. And will continue to attack Americans if we leave Iraq. There will not be a peace treaty where Muslims agree to quit killing and bombing people. They will just have more time to plan and carry out attacks on American soil.

This is the way I look at it. We threw a war in Afghanistan and nobody came. Why? Because terrorist groups don't generally pay you to get to the war. People in Muslim countries can not afford to get on a plane and fly to fight in a war. Some barely eat. But they can all load up in a Toyota Tacoma and drive across the border to Iraq.

The war in Iraq is the war on terror. It has been since Saddam fell. Muslims are pouring across the border into Iraq to fight Americans. People don't understand that and it is scary. Because if we quit fighting them in Iraq we will just have to fight them somewhere else. And where will that somewhere else be?
