"We Have To Fight Them Over There So We Don't Have To Fight Them Over Here"

I've gone off before about the immorality of this policy--fighting in someone else's country in order to spare your own from the ravages of your war--but that's not what I'm going to do here. I'm also going to refrain from pointing out that "they" (al Qaeda) weren't even there when we invaded. I'm also not going to point out that the only ones of them that we're fighting are ones that were manufactured by our invasion...so we're only swatting flies that we ourselves bred and raised.

Instead I'm going to suggest a slogan that actually gets at the truth of the situation better. It should be something like:

We Have To Fight Them Where They Are Strongest So That They Don't Have to Fight Us Where WE Are Strongest

Or:

We Have To Fight Them Where They'll Only Kill 18-35 Year Old Working Class Folks, and Not Important People Like, Ya' Know, Wall Street Corporate-bots

Brilliant f*cking strategy, eh?
