Alrighty. So... You want to know what is similar and different from us supporting our boys far away? Well, the thing is... Back then, in WW1 we were fighting against a REAL army, in WW1 we had war bonds so that our boys could get good equipment and pay to fight in somewhere thousands of miles away from home. Today, well... Taxes help pay for majority of it, we have over 600 BILLION in Defense spending, besides, the terrorist threat isn't all that bad. That is unless they have a fully trained army, air force, and navy. Until then, we're more so of a police force abroad. And unlike WW1 all of the troops in Iraq are volunteers nowadays. The American society is one to always be the go-getter. "Knockout in the first round" type of people. Think about Vietnam. It was a war that had gone on too long, and soldiers died every day. Soldiers still die, don't get me wrong. However, all of them volunteered to be there. Isn't that enough in itself?
