ATTENTION: War supporters - your country needs you
Kagan makes it absolutely clear that an increase in the number of
available troops and American military volunteers is critical to the
success of the surge specifically, and for "victory" in the war in
Iraq generally, and he therefore emphasizes how urgent it is for more
Americans to enlist in the military if we are to Win:
.....
That is the whole point. To take Joyner's fireman example, if a
person: (a) were arguing vociferously that the threat of unmanaged
fires posed a danger to the Republic's existence and to civilization
as we knew it, and containing them therefore outweighed all other
issues, and (b) experts accepted as such by that person urgently
warned that the fires have become impossible to contain -- and that
the fate of our country is therefore seriously threatened -- due to a
severe shortage of willing fire fighters, then, self-evidently, it
would be natural and entirely legitimate to demand of that person a
response as to why he himself is not acting to confront the fire
threat, given that he himself characterizes that threat as
civilization-endangering and more important than all others.
