I don't care. I want them OUT. I just want them to come home. I just want them to get out. NOW. I want them to come home, be safe, end this war, because this mission is far from accomplished.
I JUST WANT THEM TO COME HOME. I don't even know anyone over there, except Trent, I don't even have a stake in this not-so war they call it. I just want them home. This is ridiculous, by far the stupidest thing I've ever seen. All we do is come in, screw it all up, and leave the mess behind. I just want them out.
Mission Accomplished, my eye. Yeah, Mission Accomplished if your goal is to bleed another country of their own life. Mission Accomplished if your aims are to see how much we can suffer before we break. Mission Accomplished if you just want them to keep dying.
Bring them home. Get them out. And admit we were wrong.
