Most definately NOT. I do support out troops though, and believe we should get them home as soon as possible.

I'd have to give a qualified yes, I love my country and believe our leaders should receive the respect of the OFFICE to which serve
The Problem I have with Iraq is that those troops are not just sent there to root out an evil empire, but some how bring forth in a few months what the US, and Japan, and Germany (our success stories)did over a course of decades and with a clean slate. They are placed in an untenable position, you can't fight the failure of a government. And
the very presence of the Americans reminds the Iraqi's of its Jihad. I have a Godson over there who I want home feeling good about himself

What war... you mean the civl war that are troops have been chosen to try and control... no I don't support that... or do you mean the war that they were sent to fight in order to overthrow saddam, no I didn't support that one either... only because I know history is doomed to repeat itself and obiviously bush didn't follow it close enough to see that you can force people to accept democracy after being under a dictatorship, anarchy insues.... they people don't know how to be democratic, its not going to take military action its going to take someone to rise up who can lead the Iraqis...and once that happens we need to get the hell out cuz i know they won't be happy with what we did to their country... I say spend more effort in afghanistan, they started this, they wanted to come play with the big boys send more troops there, and let the Iraqis destroy themselves like they are trying to do! But I support the men and women who will lay their lives on the line for my freedom... and I hope they come home soon!

I absolutely do not support the war. I believe, at this point, our 'president' is nothing but a stubborn old man who refuses to see the Iraq war for what it really is: A loss. Not only have 3,100 men and women lost their lives in the name of 'freedom', but we're planning on sending 21,000 more in- and for what? There's no end in sight, no deadlines being set. It's reprehensible.
However, I do support the men and women over there fighting the war. They're not the ones making the big decisions over there, so I can't even begin to imagine blaming them for what's happening. More then anything right now, they need our support to get them home- SOON.

Yes.
I have served in Iraq and have seen the difference between 'ground truth' and what the media is telling you.
BTW - for all of you who claim that the Iraq war is 'illegal' - unless you can quote a US law that forbids that, You Are Lying!

yes!! people seem too forget that it took us over 200+ years to get to where we are. we went thru civil wars.we went thru our hard times and are still going thru them....it takes time to become a democracy..its only been 4 years for Iraq... we need to show dedication and resolve and stop squabbling about politics and start showing some concern for our nations safety...and a proactive concern... which is what this war, among other things, is and was all about......

We are at an impasse. We have crossed the Rubicon, and must continue to the destination. Right or Wrong, it is too late to turn back. Doing that will only result in higher and more amoral loss of life than if we stay. I don't like it, but, that is where it stands.

I support it. I don't believe we should have gone there, but now that we are there we can't just leave Iraq the as it is. We must stay in Iraq until stability can be reached...

I believe the struggle in Iraq is now between the Sunnis, the Shia and the Kurds. American troops have no place in this civil war, except as part of a larger multinational peacekeeping force.

Yes, I do. I have family there and they feel they are doing what is right.
Take some time and watch this video. It is an interview with 3 former, now tolerant terrorist who have turned against that way of thinking. This interview was part of the AM Morning program on CN8 in New Jersey. It tells it like it is and will surprise you as to where al Queada is breeding terrorists and where their money is coming from.

I definately support our troops over there, but don't know why we are even still in Iraq! They need to send them all back home - haven't enough lives been lost?
