oh pooor babies, don't want to fight a foe that can actually punch back. If it was invading another weak country, these same troops would only be thinking about their free health care and college.

the entire gym and coffee shop

wtf do soldiers even do

Huh, wonder what this graph says.

Thirteen troops have been killed in the war so far, and at least 232 have been wounded.

Putting those two lines next to each other seems to imply the author has some doubts about those figures too.

Is US militarism built largely on the shaky ground of claiming to be the best, untouchable military force? An agreed upon humiliation on the world stage really could kick off this long-coming chain reaction then.

"Your imperialist government will never defeat us. Our soldiers are politically motivated and strong. You are weak. You have no cause. No one wants you here. Why do you stay? Tell your officers you want to go home, GI. Tell them you will not fight anymore. Tell them you are defeated."

I don't think the US has been under any sort of artillery fire since Vietnam.
