What is your oppinion on the war?

Question

I am a Soldier in the US Army and I'm in Iraq. I just want to know how you people feel about us and what we do? And be honest, don't hold back because im a Soldier

Answer 1

I'm with you brother. So is about 90% of the country. The liberal media sucks and won't tell it like it really is but anyone that's been there knows. I retired from the Army in 1981, then worked until Aug. 2003 in Force Protection as a civilian at Fort Hood. The Army today is an awesome force, especially when combined with the other branches. You guys have technology we didn't even dream of in Vietnam, and you damn sure know how to use it. Keep kicking *** and cover the bodies with the rags on their heads. The following article depicts the mindset of a society of American people that have not had any major conflicts on our soil since the Civil War. They watch TV but they cannot relate to the Hell war can produce. However, they will when we get hit with a true WMD. It's too bad it has to take that to wake people up and make them realize we are in a true and bloody war with bad guys that want to kill us any way they can. Keep up the good work. The following is an article that I think hits the nail on the head. [e-mail]

I am sure by now you have heard what happened to the brave American soldiers that were ambushed and taken hostage recently just south of Baghdad . These brave young men who volunteered to defend our country were murdered, tortured and butchered in the most horrendous way imaginable. Their eyes were gouged out, arms and legs broken, their private parts cut off and shoved in their mouths and finally their hearts were cut out.

Where is the outrage? Where is the protest about their human rights having been violated? Where is the ACLU? Shouldn't there be a nationwide outrage at what was done to these brave young men? Shouldn't there be, instead of talk about deadlines to withdraw, a renewed nationwide effort to wipe out this vile, despicable, murderous evil once and for all? Isn't it time that we let out all the stops and use whatever method necessary to eliminate the bastards that did this once and for all? Where is the media, from sea to shining sea, outrage at this barbaric, cowardly atrocity? Shouldn't there be protests in every American city calling for the heads of those responsible? Shouldn't this act rally all Americans to unite and defeat this evil? The attorneys concerned about the human rights of the prisoners at Guantanamo Bay (suspected Al-Qaeda associates), now that brave American soldiers have been murdered, where is their outrage? Why do they remain silent? Are they more concerned about the rights of the enemy than they are our hometown heroes?

I am ashamed of what this country is becoming. The "Greatest Generation", those who fought in World War Two and those who supported their country in other ways during that time would never have sat silently for such a barbaric act. Yet, I see no concerted effort to encourage our government and our armed forces that we Americans support any effort, any method, to catch and punish those responsible, and those who support or aid those responsible. Why?
Isn't it time we, as a Nation, the Greatest, most powerful Nation on Earth, stop allowing ourselves to be sucker punched and take it to these murderous bastards in any way, shape or form that will get the job done? Isn't it time we wipe off the face of the earth these Islamic militants that have twisted their religion to allow the murder of innocent men, women and children?

I, as an American citizen, encourage our government and our military to use any method necessary to defeat once and for all this evil, including the wholesale and widespread use of every weapon in our arsenal. If you agree, please forward. If you don't agree, simply delete, and you have my deepest sympathies.

Answer 2

Looks like that is more than one question. Haha..

My opinion on the war? I believe that it is needed and I support the cause.

I can not speak for everyone here back in the states but I totally appreciate what you men and women are doing over there everyday. Even the ones that do not believe in the reasons they are there, remain there and do thier jobs. Yes, there are a few bad apples there, but as long as they are doing thier job like they signed up to do, they are good in my book. I appreciate the sacrifices that you guys lay down for the rest of the country.

Thank you.

Answer 3

I support the soldiers but not the war.
