If we were gonna have a police action in Afghanistan or Iraq, we would send 100’s of thousands of kids into harms way to aledgedly preserve our way of life. . Imagine WWII.
We just nuked our economy and families to preserve the safety of a few who will experience similar risk regardless.
There is really no good argument I could offer the kid.
The scars are going to be around for a long time.
