You hear this alot as a Republican counter arguement but please be clear there is a significant difference between supporting our troops and supporting this war, combining the two is a big mistake. Supporting troops means giving them the money and to buy sufficient armor and have sufficient weapons to protect themselves (which this administration did not do when the war started), supporting this administration is supporting an unjust war. The troops have no say in where and when they go but you as voting citizens have a say in weather or not we send them to fight and die for a foreign country or use them to keep us safe at home.

To illustrate the point, here's the QUESTION: Would you have had the same feelings toward supporting the war and the troops in Vietnam? Or do you believe as many Americans believed that supporting the war was NOT supporting the troops. You were just sending them to die in an unjust war. Remember this is Vietnam we're talking about.

Sixty five years ago it would've been called a P.O.W. camp.
Actually, the animals at Guantanamo have it better, because they are monitored by the Red Cross, fed religiously acceptable meals, and have their spiritual needs catered to five times a day as they pray to an imaginary entity.
Moreover, they are held up to the world as innocents being persecuted by a violent, arrogant superpower that is bent on world domination, and the acquisition of oil, via a mythical military industrial complex.

Sept 11 happened five years ago this month

It's amusing to read some of the answers on this forum from people so hell bent on blaming America for everything, that Sept 11 was either a blip on the radar to them, or America had it coming
I was in New York the morning of Sept 11. I'll never forget the smell
Anyone that's got any illusions that America (and the free world) is not fighting for its existence, and that the people at Guantanamo have got it better than they deserve are dellusional

I'll say "7 troops killed today" and some idiot will say "20 were killed in drunk driving crashes"in the USA. There are 145,000 troops in Iraq ( Yes it has gone up ) and 7 died in the last two days. OK, 20 died in car crashes but that is out of a population of 280 million. Do the math. I say again. 7 fine American troops were killed in the last two days and it was on page 7 of my newspaper. Something is wrong!!!

over the ABC 9/11 Docudrama, that is being potrayed by Dems as lies, just proof that the major media outlets are left wing tilted? Now that they put something out that might show another view it stands out, might that be becasue it is finally something not left slanted??

I was at Michigan state this morning and not one young man or woman cared about what was going on in Iraq. I said to one lady in the lunch room "More troops were killed in Iraq today". She said "SO". Then she turned to her friend and stated "Paris Hilton got arrested yesterday!! Ohhhh!! How horrible"......So tell me again how America supports the Iraqi war.

Why do you say this? You have no proof of this. And if we were finished looking for bin laden would we even be in Afghanistan?

You see on that question page there're answerers who believe that if the U.S. stops supporting Israel, there won't be any terrorism. Is that true or not? Why do those answerers believe that? Is that based on any historical facts, or just blah-blah?
