This here Is what I think of in a before and after…
Oh yeah baby!!!
Aieee… the most deadly weapon on Earth. A small child! Flee! Quagmire! We’re DOOOOOMED!
War is like that Oldcatman, it happens, innocents are hurt, but you hope that in the long run the price was worth it.
Was Afghanistan worth it? Al Quaeda is no longer there planning attacks to kill our citizens, and training terrorists to kill our citizens, and Iraq? Well, Saddam is no longer paying Palestinian suicide bombers to kill innocent Israeli citizens and civilians either.
The price is high, you just have to hope that it is indeed worth the costs.
War is sometimes necassary to protect yourself, and in this case, it was indeed necassary.
Well, ASSumptions of a sort appear to be present. Maybe even some projection.
