A Texas rancher stopped at a Saskatchewan farm, and was chatting to the farmer. He asked him, "How much land do you farm"? The stubble jumper replied, "I farm three sections"? (about 2000 acres). The Texan said, "Hell, I can get in my truck and drive all day, and I'm still on my own land." The Saskatchewan farmer replied, "Yup, I had a truck like that once."
But seriously, the problem I see is post #4. Here, we are asked to accept not only the courage of the American soldier ... and American service personel are as brave, and as patriotic, and as dedicated as any ... but also, the altruism of American foreign policy. America doesn't have any foreign policy other than self-interest.
