Iraq has been a catastrophe. But let’s not establish Iraq as some sort of biblical “type” for all warfare. It is a modern aberration, a foolish mistake of epic proportions even. We treat our enemy not as foe, but a friend, and wonder why they detest us so. They are not to be pitied. In any war we must either triumph conclusively or surrender pathetically. The choice is ours. “Peace keeping” such as our soldiers are theoretically engaged in is sheer stupidity disguised as strategic deployment or somesuch… Boiled down, it is simply another form of human sacrifice on the altar of enervating post modernism and rationalistic liberal educational tripe warmed over from the 60’s. Idolatry of the filthiest sort…

The men who knew what war is, and how to fight, and the ground rules, have been dead in their graves for centuries.

What we have now are schoolboys still pretending that they are in some video game world pushing buttons with their thumbs in the dark…and those are the Generals. I have a lot more respect for the lesser mortals…the ones who get blown up daily.

Lord have mercy upon us.
