No, I haven't sacrificed anything either, but its not my country thats fighting for its life. If this country came under some ruthless dictator killing people who didn't agree with them, I think I'd believe sacrifice was worth the possibility of retaining/regaining freedom. However, if they don't want it, maybe you're right, dude, maybe we just don't get it. They don't want our help, lets pull out. We should start today. We'll tell the UN to pack up and get the hell out of the US by 6pm. Perhaps we'll send out a memo to all the countries who survive off the United States that the bank is officially closed. Tommorow, when Iraq blows up into a full scale civil war, we'll watch on TV. Of course at this point, the UN or some other worthless body of appeasing and pathetic "diplomats" will beg the US to act, but we won't. We'll sit back and wait on the security that comes with not being involved. I'm sure this will solve our problems. Hell, we'll probably get thank you letters from Iraqis, saying things like "Thanks so much for leaving, as a result, we have abundant resources, the sand has sprouted into fields of grass, and everyone is getting along beautifully." Of course, there will probably be mass executions and such, but who cares dude, because we just don't get it. Like, for real.
