Are there ANY anti-war conservatives out there??

Question

Or is constant war somehow good for us in your opinion?

Answer 1

Oxymoron?

Answer 2

I am a conservative in some ways but like the idea of being moderate. As for war only an idiot would want war. But after the powers to be, can't get it done peacefully ,or we are attacked, then we need to fight and make sure we win. We have been at war since the twin towers were destroyed, but most people have not awoken to that fact. So far mankind has really not grown up much. Is it time for another extinction??? Man has really not been around very long.

Answer 3

While war is part of our human history, i don't see it as necessary. the current "war" raging in the Middle East is not necessary. I don't know why people are so worried about the rest of the world seeing as "cowards" because we (should) choose to pull our young men and women out of a a chaotic situation, that we obviously can not (and our current administration will not) fix or make any better. I think "the rest of the world" would love to see us admit that our president was wrong in making the premature decision to go to war to begin with. I do NOT believe that my freedom is going to be taken from me by someone in some another country. I do know, I fight every day to maintain my "freedom" that a corrupt government is trying to take from me and then tell me it's a "national security issue". If there is an end to the human race, it will be war that brought it.

Answer 4

I am a Army Infantry veteran of two combat tours.

I am incredibly "anti-war". I NEVER want to see people dying. Never, ever, ever.

However.

There are times when wars MUST be fought. I am a FIRM believer that when good men do nothing, evil spreads.

I do believe we're in one of those times. It's my opinion. The more we allow Photoshopped pictures and staged news events where the same children are drug in front of the camera for someone's sick political agenda the more the "common" man will turn a blind eye to the real atrocities happening in the world.

So, not FOR war, but I UNDERSTAND war.

Answer 5

Conservatives hate war, but the price of not fighting for freedom is worse than the war itself.

Answer 6

Anti-war conservatives will make a moves once it's already too late.

Answer 7

War pisses me off becasue you see all these things on the news that they have just seperated conjoined twins and all this stuff that is great because that means we are getting another step closer to something then we have this war the is not totally nesasary that is just totally takeing that step and back tracking they are saying well the war for iraq bush says is because of 9-11 and all that stuff well then why are we killing people when we are mad at them for killing our people in the first place it think that war shoud just stop it is stupid!!!

Answer 8

I consider myself a conservative, for the most part, but I do disagree with the war...so, yes.

Answer 9

Yes there some of us such as myself who are Pacifists, who do not beleive in war at ANY cost, even self defence...(theres much to say about diplomacy)
However due to the extreme negligence of human kind coupled with our violent competitive nature, wars will never EVER cease.

Answer 10

lets see...stop the war give our enemies time to prepare to attack us in the states...stop the war means they can use there small amount of resources somewhere else to attack...stop the war the middle east sees us as cowards and it emboldens the terrorists...stop the war liberals are happy...stop the war democracy can't grow in the middle east thus our number one weapon against the kill mindset is gone...stop the war...need i go on...

Answer 11

anti-war as in a core belief that killing and war are always wrong? not really. anti iraq war? more every day. cause this war sucks.
