It has for the longest time been of great debate for the need of war, and the role of peace. I personally believe in war, but only for the fact that we cannot simply ignore the fact that both our peace, and our freedom are in periled. I have read the papers, and heard the news, and listened to the highest politicians argue over the need of war... And yet I don't rightly know which one is right, for both party has it's pro's and con's. If our peace were disturbed by not going to war than wouldn't that be a little contradicting? So how are we to say we should go to war, or keep the peace?
As September eleventh brought our world, and country to a standstill we realized something... We're not as safe as we thought. Hundred's of people were killed, and we just watched in horror as one of the biggest accomplishments of the United States fell to a pile of debris on ground zero. In this condition it was inevitable that we go to war, how else could we gain back our feeling of security, and in turn our peace.
There are times that war is not the best route, those times are the ones were we don't have enough supporting evidence or we don't understand the cause or need of such a fight. I have often heard people question the war we are in now... I don't know how to reply to that, it's often too hard to derive a truth from a lie in our government so I can't debate too much on the topic, but I do know what I see, and what I feel is the right way.
Some positive effects of war can be seen in the Middle East. Women are not hiding behind a burke, only hoping that they not be killed, or discriminated. Is this positive? I say yes. There are many differences. So we can see some of the effects of this war are helping the world slowly by progressing in letting women have the rights they deserve. There are some negative effects of war too, such as the many soldiers lives lost in the battle for the freedom of the Middle East, and also for our freedom to be restored. So can we not say that they are equal, by the effect's can the cause not be honored? I'll let you be the judge.
