You realize that we've been at war for 10 years don't ya? We're already loaded on equipment, and have more than enough resources to get our troops anywhere on earth. That's something that no other Army on earth has, especially China.

What has changed is that the very people who wanted to jail Bush and Cheney for approving of using waterboarding to save the lives of Americans are slashing the size of our military and have proposed giving hundreds of millions of dollars to terrorists who are torturing their own citizens and arresting Americans. I have read that the Obama administration may use involuntary separations to speed up the reduction in force size. Apparently, some of the savings will be going to the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt.

Things are worse in the Middle East and northern Africa than were 10 year ago because what little stabiity that there was is gone and Obama's support of the "Arab Spring" has made things predictably worse. This is not a good time to be slashing our own force levels.
