Total thread derailment.
About the only encouraging statistic is that less American soldiers die these days than died in WWI and WW II
I can see how that would be encouraging to americans but is it neccessarily a good thing? When the burdens of war are so asymmetric that an occupying army can have less than 3000 dead while the occupied country has at least 10 times that in civilian deaths alone. Doesn't this give Americans an isolation from the realities of warfare which may not be a good thing?
TTFN,
