Better question: Do you want to send your sons and daughters into battle, in defense of a Nation of people (ours) that is comfortable operating extraterritorial detention camps where unidentified inmates can be incarcerated and interrogated indefinitely without charges or evidence, and with only a shameful burlesque of legal process (which even our military finds bizarre and repugnant)? We have no idea who these people are or how they came into our possession, and we don’t care — because someone told us they’re all “terrorists.” What was “degenerate and totalitarian” when the Soviets did it has miraculously become a patriotic prerogative. Any “America” that abandons its principles out of fear and mindless nationalism isn’t really America.
