A Short Leash

This story really gets to me. If we are not going to let our soldiers do what needs to be done without harassing them we might as well pull out right now, throw out the American flag and put up a united states of islam flag and get it over with. War is hell, good people die, are maimed, suffer terrible things - but hopefully more so the bad guy. Is the United States worth fighting for or what? Do you really want to just hand it over to islamists? They are fighting a war against us, we didn't start it, but if we just ignore them they WILL do us in. The U.S. will fall just as sure as those towers did. We can't play at war. We're in or we're out. Which is it?
