Then why aren't my sister-in-law, close friends, and several distant cousins back yet? Why are they still risking their lives every day?
But I will agree with Phaenx in the fact that there ARE visible results in Iraq as opposed to Vietnam, and the length of time is nowhere near comparable. However, if the current insurgencies become more controlled and give rise to a large-scale uprising against US troops, then you may be able to make a comparison...but we aren't there, and let us pray we will never get to that point.
