“So, Wesley Clark is running for president. Pretty amazing guy. Four star general, first in his class at West Point, supreme commander of NATO, saw combat in Vietnam, won the bronze star, silver star, the purple heart for being wounded in battle.

“It is important to understand that there are two separate battles taking place in Iraq: there is the political rift between the Sunnis, Shia and the Kurds and there is a foreign extremist group - ISIS - trying to take advantage of the political environment through violence. If the Iraqis can resolve their political differences, it will be far more difficult for ISIS to thrive. Moving forward, we should continue to evaluate additional steps to help combat ISIS as we see what the Iraqis are willing to do politically, but we must also firmly guard against mission creep.” IfsShouldTryingTwoImportantHelpingMovingPoliticalDifficultDifferencesStepsEnvironmentViolenceGroupsMilitaryWillingBattleAdvantageIraqMissionsMoving ForwardThriveResolveCombatIsisCreepsEvaluateExtremistKurdsShiaRiftPolitical EnvironmentPolitical DifferencesExtremist Groups Author:David Adam Smith

“I think the best war photos I have taken have always been made when a battle was actually taking place - when people were confused and scared and courageous and stupid and showed all these things. When you look at people right at the very moment of truth, everything is quite human.

“The stories I would hear from men who were going through divorces and in child custody battles, the lies their wives told about them being predators, that they had fondled or abused the children, and these guys didn't know what to do.

“I need somebody who can at least stand up to me and slug it out, toe to toe. I don't mean a physical battle. I mean a man who would lay me, and when he was done, I'd say: "Oh, brother, I've been laid." Or if we had an argument, he would stand up and engage in intellectual combat and not go off and mope in the corner, or take reprisals, or go to drink.” IfsMenNeedsMeanDoneBrotherDrinkBattleIntellectualArgumentLaysCornersCombatToesSlugsReprisal Author:Madalyn Murray O'Hair
