News Corp should be referred to as such; News Corporation just confuses and sounds "generic".

If people were sent to wars because "hey we have all these troops" those politicians would be out on their ass immediately.

I think the only negative regarding a draft is the quality of the soldiers. The volunteer army is goin to yield better soldiers. Otherwise i agree with Charlie in a general sense.

As far as pulling troops out, i think it is really a double edged sword. We will have to stay on the region to maintain regional control, but at the same time I think we have won everything we can possibly win. I think we need to be there to make sure a negative influence from Iran is minimized and I think we need to be there to represent our position and keep the anti-american feelings from being worse than they already are. Though I think we should have a good portion of our soldiers out of the line of fire, but we need to stay in the region.

I've wondered about this for awhile. Are there any studies on the subject that demand the label falsehood?
