Oh well, kids die in swimming pools sometimes too. What are you going to do? That's the secret about children no one wants to tell you; sometimes they die.
And really it's all worth it because American white men* need to feel manly and confident. And everyone knows that men who are against wars are effeminate and too scared shitless to scream pro-war slogans at their televisions and call people faggots on the internet.
And their wives need to feel protected. How are the white women** going to feel protected if the white men in America aren't pro-war? What kind of women can get hopped up and feeling sexy over some guy too scared to call anti-war men faggots on the internet???
Edit: Also as Mott has pointed out, not only do American white men need erections, and their wives need something to get excited over when their bottle of KY intense effects is empty and it's easier for their husband to sign on to a message board and type 'FAGGOT" at some feminized anti-war p*ssy than it is to go to the store, but, Afghan women sometimes get killed trying to get an education and I don't care what you say, murdering a woman's child will sure give her one of those!
*It's a fact that blacks don't support wars, period.
**Goes double for black women.
