I think that is a more appropriate sentiment.

Has anyone apologised to them yet? A big announcement on the Tannoy saying 'to all servicemen and women who may be here - we're sorry we keep electing fools who insist on sending you undeserving people halfway around the world to watch your mates get blown up in a country we have no business sticking our noses into? We'll do all we can to make sure we elect someone who keeps you at home for a change next time ...'
I think that is a more appropriate sentiment.

I have an even better solution. Bring them all home, start using our domestic oil reserves and stop supporting Isreal. You'll probably find most anti-US sentiment in the Middle East will fade away after that.

You get interesting vehicles on the road such as a pick-up truck with saplings placed upright all around the edge of the back bit so that a towering pile of trash bags and leaves can be precariously contained. I enjoy the "you only live once" feeling of driving behind something like that.
