Wingnuts Thrilled over Prospect of Sixty Years of Warfare

Ace of Spades HQ

The war-loving wingnuts at milblog Ace of Spades are salivating over the prospect of decades of continuous warfare in the asinine "War on Terror."

They reference a fascinating story - that yet another two 80+ year old Japanese man who were soldiers in World War Two have been discovered hiding out in the mountains of Mindanao in the southern Philippines.*

So sayeth the war-fetishists:
Liberals whining about a quick end to this war -- featuring guys even more fanatical than Japanese suicide-torpedo pilots -- ought to bear in mind that some people just will not give up. Ever.
Leave it to wingnuts to twist things into yet another slam on liberals and to justify carrying an unwinnable war forward ad infinitum.
