"Well, considering the number of people who have fought in Iraq and civilian contractors is between 300,000 and 500,000 and about 850 have died, I'd
say even fighting in Iraq is not tantamount to a death sentence."
Are you serious??
The media is reporting 1000 soldiers killed. Have a very strong hunch the number is much, much higher.
(It's a bit odd we aren't hearing about any MIAs, no?)
There are *supposedly* 8000 casualities.
Why shouldn't you believe those figures?
Well, uh...gee.....
cuz 5600 RETIRED SERVICEMEMBERS WERE INVOLUNTARILY RECALLED TO ACTIVE DUTY OVER THE SUMMER.
Do you all have some sort of shared mental block over that reality?
That's a backdoor draft, people.
They're being recalled to fill the void in our military.
Do you honestly think 5600 people would be involuntarily recalled
if the above fatality/casuality numbers are accurate??
THINK.
Reflect upon what I just posted.
Don't skim over it...don't tune it out...THINK.
