You can't address the issue of sanity without questioning two meaningless wars of occupation by the US in the Middle East. It is a crazy pursuit. It has been missing from any of Jon Stewart's discussions on his show.

These wars are unwinnable. Perpetual war is not a sane solution which is now being offered by members of the military and some politicians.

Afghanistan is the longest war in American history and there has been no definitive constructive outcome regardless of the propaganda emanating from Mainstream Media.
The body count is just adding up.
