Once again we see the ignorance of the American public in the replies here counterposed to your sensible question.

Is there something wrong in being anti-war? Is it commendable to let your oil hungry president invade the middle east for his own financial gain while poor Americans, who have joined the arm because the same government offers them no other route out of poverty, die?

What do you people think is going on? It's so easy to go along with the main stream media and leave everythng to politcians but in the long term this will only bring you suffering.

Read 1984 by George Orwell and you will have some idea of what the future holds for your children.

"I'm not anti-war. I'm just sick of it"
Wow, you are exactly where the extremist groups predicted. They said that America will tire of the war and leave. They see us as weak.

"Will they ever say lets get along"
Uh, I believe it's the extremist groups which have said they will kill and destroy America and Israel.

Funny how people are enlisting to serve and fight for our nation everyday and on the other end are people like you who say your sick of it. Did you serve in Iraq? What are you tired of?

I believe our government does have our nations interests at heart. Whether you are for or against the war, most will admit they think Bush is doing what he thinks is best. Is money involved....course it is. That's reality. Money rules the earth. You just need to balance the picture.

I have to wonder where you get your attitude toward the war. Yes, we are all sick of it. Do you think you can tell the blood-thirsty terrorists who want us all dead "let's just get along"? See, their goal is to kill or convert the "Infidel" (non-Muslims). Do you want that? Do you want Islamic terrorists having that control over you? Well, I don't. Unrest in the Middle East has been simmering for decades and it is now at the boiling point, which means it must be fought against. And this is why we are fighting this war. I am so thankful to our troops and their bravery for fighting this enemy for me.

Would be great if it were that simple-- its not.

At this point, the only hope we have is for the next administration and congress to try and keep us out of any NEW wars.

We're in Iraq and Afghanistan for the long haul.

And, no they don't have our best interests at heart. They have their own interests at heart-- both R's and D's

You sound anti-war to me. And the only thing I am sick of is complaining from anti-war folks who have never even seen any action at all. How can you be sick of fighting? You don't know anything about war.

The old saying "it takes two to fight" is true but deceptive. It only takes one idiot to beat the snot out of another person that won't stick up for himself.

As long as there are groups that ignore the rule of law to further their cause - wars are inevitable.

When we get a actual real leader with the balls to pull out of Bush's mistake, or elect legislators that refuse to waste any more money there.
