I am serious. I know there have been public debates about this too.
People can't seem to separate the two. We all love and wish our men/women home safely. They are just doing their call of duty.
Disagreeing with this war isn't synonymous with not supporting the troops, and by people saying if they oppose the war, it's disrespectrul, you're not a patriot, your'e not supporting the troops, etc. is twisted and to me seems like mind control and mind games that people are playing with each other, or that politicians and extremists want you to believe.
I keep thinking of Bush's "You're either with us or against us" echoing whenever I hear that. Maybe it had one meaning at first but it's almost sinister in context at this stage of the game.
I know it's a sensitive area, but I think people need to somehow separate the two, because I think the USA has been divided and has suffered much more as a nation from this war than from 9/11.
Thoughts?
