I Dont Support Our Troops – LA Times

This from Joel Stein of the LA Times, the fourth most read paper in the nation.

“I DON’T SUPPORT our troops.”

“…being against the war and saying you support the troops is one of the wussiest positions the pacifists have ever taken — and they’re wussy by definition. It’s as if the one lesson they took away from Vietnam wasn’t to avoid foreign conflicts with no pressing national interest but to remember to throw a parade afterward.

Blindly lending support to our soldiers, I fear, will keep them overseas longer by giving soft acquiescence to the hawks who sent them there”
