Read about why we were working with the Mujahadeen of Afghanistan and why we stuck our noses in the Middle-East during these times.

Then come back and correct your statement here, as it most certainly wasn't BS back then...

Why should we give dubbya any credit for doing so, it was wrong then and still is today....especially since he lied to do it.

What did he lie about, pray tell? I hope you've done your home work here...

M. Moore brought up a good point about "sending your own kids off to die in Iraq". If anyone in the upper class had to consider that they may be sending their own kids to die, they may not be so quick to send them in harms way.

It's the worst point in existance. The US is a 100% voluntary force. One can't SEND their kids off to die...

We aren't the world's police, nor should our military be treated as such. So don't give me "they knew what they were signing up for". Yes I served in the military, so I'm speaking from my point of view. Look at what class of Americans are in the overall population of US military that are in Iraq and Afganistan.

What's your point? Show me where in history the US military was made up of nothing but middle-class and upper-class troops.
