Sliding down Slippery Slope to another Eye-rack war.

At the time I was skeptical about an eventual ebb to the flow of America's war-fever. But now it's clear - the substantial minority of Americans who opposed the 2003 invasion of Eye-rack were not only RIGHT - we've had an impact. So now, 11 years later. Obama promises "no boots on the ground," even as he bolsters US forces in the region, including the several thousand "advisers." The sole reason the POTUS is attempting to calm public reaction is the overwhelming, collective War Fatigue from which this country suffers. Even in an under-educated and disinformed society like the USA, the impact of four trillion dollars and a million human lives sacrificed to greed is not overlooked, at least not by EVERYONE. http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/sep/17/obama-us-troops-ground-war-isis-iraq
