"We need a post-Bush, post-9/11, post-Iraq military that is mission focused on protecting Americans from 21st century threats, not misused for discredited ideological purposes," Edwards said in remarks prepared for delivery. "By framing this as a war, we have walked right into the trap the terrorists have set—that we are engaged in some kind of clash of civilizations and a war on Islam." Everything that Edwards is saying above is true wee, as an American government, need to focus on how to protect out citizens and then if that is accomplished we can focus on other worldly matters. The government needs to protect out soldiers fighting in Iraq, and by having there to fight a “world” war they aren’t even fighting for their loved ones at home, they are now fighting to save Bush and things need to change. I think that Edwards needs to change his mind on this issue of the war being a lost cause, not only do his opponents Obama and Clinton feel opposed to him, but by saying this many of the Americans who have soldiers in Iraq are feeling like he is crapping all over their efforts. Also, I think that Edwards needs to recognize that we can’t just “move past this war” and focus on Americans in the 21st century…this war is going to define the America of the 21st century and it needs to be handled with and not forgotten about.
