Right on. Keep it up and no more ISIS. They are like cockroaches, they just keep showing up and difficult to get rid of them. I truly believe that they are cowards and bullies and that one day they will be obliterated.

I wonder what the sentiment is about our troops in Iraq is now that we are training them to fight. I'm hoping that they realize we want them to succeed in destroying a common enemy and perpetuate a democratic style government. We have stirred the pot over there for so long maybe the natives will see this as us trying to right the ship.

Seems strange to me that these countries that have been war torn since before Christ: Do not know, nor study modern warfare!

 

You might think that they would realize at some point that if you are going to be in a fight you might want to train & be prepared!

 

After spending 20 years in the Army and retiring in 1996: I still maintain my weapons & practice just in case the stuff hits the fan. I pray I do not have to take any more lives in my lifetime, but should the circumstances arise - I pity the fool who pushes me past the point of no return!
