It's the middle east. It is the same war only in different location, and it does not make it any less important.

If the same administration started an illegal war in Iraq would this war now be illegal as well?

Here is a point they try to make:

1. The military is broken.
   We are abusing the small population of armed service members with multiple deployments while using inadequate vehicles and equipment. Less than one half of a percent of the American population is serving in the active armed forces, which is the least amount in the last century. Only 25% of the troops in Iraq are there for their first tour, while 50% are there on their second tour, and the remaining 25% are there three times or more. We continue to involuntarily extend soldiers with Stop-Loss, recall them repeatedly for additional service using the Individual Ready Reserve, and send soldiers with diagnosed medical problems into combat.

This is still happening as well no?
