Americans may rally around a president when he sends troops to war but not when he sends them the bill.

It's possible that some people are thinking that the ground troops will face almost no casualties, as happened in the Persian Gulf,

We know the Americans and the British are too scared to send troops to Sudan after what has happened to them in Afghanistan and in Iraq, but even if they send pure Muslim or Arab troops we will consider them invaders and will fight them.

The Americans know better than anyone that their troops in the region and in Iraq are vulnerable. I would advise them not to commit such a strategic error.

You know, I'm pro-troops, but I'm not pro-war.

So often, it's seen as that if you're not for the war, you're not for the troops. We're so much for the troops that we want them home safely.
