My take away is that the USA had struck a balance in the last 4 years; 0 dead solders, all for naught. Perhaps such incompetent leaders in the country and the world, has caused a lack of confidence in the resolve to deliver on the previous administration's promise that any US death would result in an overwhelming destruction that would begin in the village of the leaders of that nation. "This administration’s actions are heartless, its justifications nonsensical." This is the consequences of our weak gutless response to being kowtowed, silenced, misrepresented, stolen from, and lied to. We need to assert our plenary authority as citizens, insisting that these elected and appointed government people act as the servants that they are! We need to take the reigns and reign in these headstrong folks or discharge them with dispatch by every legal means.
