A picture speaks a thousand words:

THAT'S why we are still there!
This little girl and the thousands like her is the reason I want to go back! I want there to be a day when she doesn't have to worry about getting blown up on her way to school. I want her to marry and not have to worry if her children will be blown up by some terrorist asshole who sets off a car bomb.
I know it's hard for the DUmpmonkey primitives to understand that there is some things that are more important than their pitiful existance.
