What are those arguments?

What are those arguments? The one I keep pointing out you're using over and over. The one where you say "You're just complaining, not offering a better solution, therefore your criticism should be ignored." People said this over and over again when the war was in full throttle. It was too late to not do it in the first place. You'll notice I mentioned that option before: "My response was that there were no good options (other than not having gone there in the first place)" Withdrawing was not a good option, look how we just had to go back there again a year later! We were between a rock and a hard place, and there was no good solution. But that does not mean that criticizing the war was an invalid endeavor. My point is, it doesn't matter that I'm not giving you an example of better ways to live. The issue at hand is that the system as it stands is broken. Whether or not there are better options (I contend that there are, but that's not the conversation we're having right now), that does not make my criticism invalid. Feel free to respond, but at this point this conversation is going in circles.
