I prefer to think of it as no stomach for agressive warfare, but plenty of stomach for defense of nation. The resistance to the Mexican invasion is an example. The US government is aiding and abetting this invasion, but patriotic Americans are fighting it.

However, it is obviously coming and our leaders just need to be honest for a change. Then we'll need to imprison and/or execute every member of the Iraq Government who supports terrorism including, but not limited to, the Prime Minister, Speaker of Parliament, many members of Parliament, and the entire Iraqi Ministry of Defense. Overthrow a democratically elecetd government in Iraq? Hell yes. We have no choice. And we'll need a lot more than a stop loss program to make it happen.

We need executions, after lawful trial of course, quite a few US government officials.
