No. Do both. They're not there by their own choice.

Sure it is. It's about all those things. And if this war were a real
war, in which we all were involved viscerally, you'd understand that,
too. But it's not. It's a sham war, where certain people send certain
other people under their nefarious control to die in order to create
the imprimatur of power.

Send the ****ing cookies. And a letter reminding them how they were
shafted by a coordinated conspiracy to lie to Congress.
