Drums of War

The drums of war get louder and louder. In the meantime, our media increases it’s attempts to villainize our Soldiers and some of our politicians parade around like a bunch of self-righteous attention hounds and the others prance around in pretty pink ballet slippers attempting to not offend our enemies.
Our country could give remedial classes in How to Lose a War 101.
Cartoon Cox and Forkum whose article associated with the cartoon has a perfect example of the disparity between the way we are fighting the war and the way the enemy is fighting the war.
