See, I just don't see the need to defend it as much as we are. Sure, we're defending it from those sneaky al-Qaeda bastards, and we're defending it from Iraqi militants (who are basically just pissed off that we bombed their country first...go figure).
Hell, I went outside and went to a supermarket where it was packed yesterday. Was I worried that some terrorist was going to blow up the local Shop 'n Save? Nope. To paraphrase head58's critique of my Infamous War Novel so many years ago... "why in hell would they want to take over a small town like Athol, anyway?" Certainly not for the beer, I'd guess.
