This is impressive. CNN has a site that honors those
who have died. You say support the troops. Then look
at this page and look at everyones face and honor
them.

I did look for a website for veterns who support the war. Can't find a one. Can you recommend some?
Lets see I found
Veterans Against The Iraq War
Iraq Veterans against the war
The war in Iraq//national center for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
Support the Warrior not the War: Give them their Benefits.
Oh by the way the government Cut the VA benefits for the veterns of this war.

Answer 1

They joined the Military to do one thing and one thing only. DEFEND AMERICA FROM FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC ENEMIES. If you don't want to fight in a war, then don't join the Military. I spent 8 years in the field of Special Operations, and know the sacrifices that have to be made by service members. I support whatever the President of The United States calls for concerning the U.S. Military.

Answer 2

They have earned the right to voice their opinion, while others have sat on their fat lazy asses complaining these guys/girls have been putting their buts on the line. I also think all vets should be given real job training when they get home. Lets face it, there isn't much demand for a E.O.D. diver in the civilian sector, nor is there much demand for a Boatswains mate, or a tank driver. Vets have been getting ripped off for years. We have put our lives on hold to defend the freedoms of a bunch of whiners and complainers and all the vet gets is a bus ticket back to his/her hometown. Americans are very ungrateful and the majority of you
need to stop and take stock and offer thanks to those folks when they get home. Whether you supported any war or not, they answered the call, and should be treated a little more like human beings than the way you all treated the Viet Nam vets, a lot of whom are living on the streets. How about giving them the attention that you give Brad and Angelina and the baby born out of wedlock.

Answer 3

Not impressed. Out of a million people who served in Iraq - what percentage agree with them?

Why don't you look at the websites of Iraq veterans who support the war? There are a lot more of these people than your buddies.

Answer 4

Everyone has a right to their beliefs but the vast majority support the US choices in Iraq. Their are people with a grudge in everything you do. My sister in law does not even like our family vacations - 1 out of 53.

Answer 5

I think if anyone has the right to show disent towards war it is those who have seen it up close and personal. They put their lives on the line to guarantee our freedoms and have earned the right to express themselves. I myself have so much respect for them for speaking out for what they believe is right.

Answer 6

I am for them 1000 percent. If anybody has the right to discuss what is going on in Iraq, it is them.

Answer 7

They have earned that right, I oppose the war but have never been there. I have the right while they have earned it. It would seem that their opinions should carry more weight.

Answer 8

i respect them for the courage to come forward with their thoughts.....

there opinion about the war doesn't make them better or worse americans!!!!

it just makes them free minded citizens who have the balls to see something wrong when it is WRONG!!!!!

Answer 9

i agree with most of the other answers. they have WAY more credibility because they have been there and seen it first hand. we should listen to them most of all.

Answer 10

I think they have earned the right!!!!
