It seems more and more like the war in Iraq is taking on a image like that of Vietnam! With protests at funerals, homecomings, displaying images of dead US soilders with the caption "They deserved it" Is this really what our countrymen die for!

No. The Troops are only doing their job. They volunteered and deserve to be treated like they are making a world differance not treated like they are a bunch of baby killers. Our troops are doing a great job despite the conditions and circumstances surrouding their deployment.

well, the USA is somewhat ambivalent of what it has to do and how it should react to the war on Iraq and other places in the world.
As an American , i do not see why should we go through all of this. a savvy war leader can win a war without having to lose anything , strategic thinking is lacking in this cabinet and leadership does not fit Bush . he is relay arrogant and is an extremest .
all of us Americans , who do not believe media and are hearing both sides of the story , know that every single war that bush has got us into , is nothing but a failure .
about Iraq , the best way to overcome it was to simply , uproot Saddam and strike an embargo and that is that . going all the way to the gulf and losing many soldiers and using tax payers money to win a dump war , is something i see as , an utter waste of American resources .

No, many so-called Americans do not appreciate what our troops are doing to protect us. Some in the left-wing pretend that they're only against the war in Iraq and in so doing, they say, they will save the lives of American soldiers: That's a load of crap because by opposing everything our government is doing militarily we are giving aid and comfort to OUR enemies. And on the matter of disrespecting the funerals of soldiers killed in combat or while serving America: A hang-mans' noose, literally, would be most fitting.

Your first four respondents are incorrect. President Bush acting on intelligence reports from SEVERAL nations including our own that WMD's were in Iraq, made the correct decision to stop Saddam and his killers who butchered thousands of his own people. There must have been WMD because so many countries' intelligence cannot be wrong. They were moved, most likely to Syria. As far as the Mideast is concerned, they are our business. First because we need to have peace in the area for the defense of Israel's right to exist and also because we depend for survival on oil from the area. So, Canadian responder, do not say it is none of our business because it is. The President is NOT a Hitler. He is working to free a country from a murderer, not commit genocide as Hitler did. Get your history and facts straight before you shoot off your incorrect mouth.
Chow!!

I think the US shouldnt medle with what is happening on the other side of the globe. Mind your own business. Besides, your soldiers obey Hitler Nr.2, George Bush. If the American people realized how much important it is to vote and throw that airhead off his throne things would be different. Instead you care about which club Paris Hilton went to. America should mind its own business. Who died and made them kings anyway? Why hasnt anyone, here in Europe protested? (Except Britain-Americas little dog)

This won't be a popular answer but yes, it is what they died for. They died to protect the United States which includes preserving our constitutional freedoms. That includes an idiots right to protest a soldiers funeral.

The loss and self lack of knowledge on what is the " Liberation of Freedom " and What is " Poppy"s Day " is all about.
That makes little children angry with the loss of our creator's gifts of life on planet earth.
That's why living human kind have no respect for our brothers and sisters serving out there and were kicking them on their butts for the blunders and slip-ups with human errors in throwing away that gifts of life on planet earth.
