This may hurt in the present and we mayhave to sacrifice because of it, but it's an investment in the future of the US. You know what they saying about having to spend money to make money.
The loss of our soldiers lives is horrible and not worth any amount of oil or money... but casualties are a part of war. There's nothing we can do about it, except try to prevent it as much as possible. Unfortunately, the killing of our soldiers is after the actual combat and has turned into a guerilla war. It's going to take time and money. I expect it for years and years to come... not looking forward to it, but I've accepted it's long duration.
