I think there might have been other ways to save an estimated 40,000 babies per year than to destroy a country to do so. The result is that Afghanistan still has miserable neo-natal death rates and the country is still not secure. The estimated 40,000 babies are born into actual…

Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we.

It doesn't matter that McCain was using the term to refer to his captors, the term is still racist. A non-racist term would have been, well, ummm...captors.

OK, you sent me to my dictionary to find one of those "gai(koku)jin" type words. I guess you're saying that extraterritoriality is what the US is asking for here--at least in these cases. That may be true but urging extrality seems a cold substitute for what is more likely…

BoldWarVeteran,
Yes, some things change and some things don't.
Something that has not changed is that Iraq is still a sovereign country and not a US protectorate.
Something else is that the Iraqis have moved from wanting our assistance to wanting us around to wanting us out. Our UN mandate…

BoldWarVeteran,
