Mr Lowery needs to speak to the people that are actually in Iraq & Afghanistan, most of them tell a much different story.
I find this amusing, using NOR as a source. When I used it for different reviews, I got the same sort of response as i do when I use NewsMax, or any other source the elitists believs is beneath their dignity to read.

National Review is much more well-respected than NewsMax. Even if we disagree with their opinions, they aren't known for straight making sh*t up the way that Newsmax and other Nutjob sites are.

The people who are 'actually in' Iraq and Afghanistan... may have a reason for telling a different story, don't you think? Noone wants to believe that what they are doing is useless or wrong. It is in the best interests of their psyche to support what they are doing to the fullest, and this is reflected in their speech; but it certainly isn't an objective view of the situation.
