Bringing Them Home

There is constant debate about bringing home the troops. I have asked before, how do you release the tiger when you got him by the tail? It seems that America has taken great pains to get themselves caught in a war that may never have been. Many reports now tell us that we, America, have suffered lost of over 400 Billion dollars and over 4000 lives.  But if you think this is a lot, think again. To date, over 100,000 Iraqis have lost their lives. I don’t care if they are the casualties of war, I care that each of these people have family who waited for them, friends and even pets that never even knew that they were gone. Why are we contributing to this kind of carnage?

 

Bringing Them Home

Bagdad or Bosnia there are all the same

Ruthless destruction with little to gain

Iraq has the money and the man power too

No help is needed to settle their civil coup

Going in was wrong and staying in augments

It’s mandatory that the USA leaves with atonements

None of this need have happened but we can’t take it away

Going in was only a search and find mission by the USA

The years have gone bye and over 400 billion spent

Hardly a stable day past, or with no lost of lives went

Every day was getting better since the surges went in

Military advisors tried to convince us that soon we’ll win

Hillary believes now that we should bring our troops back

Obama would have never wanted them sent to Iraq

Misspoken words by leaders can cost billions to the economy

Economically disastrous but what about our 4000+ casualty
