Answer 1

I support our troops...I Don't support this unconstitutional, illegal war that George Bush and his war profiteering friends have put us in. The attack on Iraq was a planned priority from the very day Bush took office for three lame reasons:
1) The Bush family had a personal vendetta against Saddam Hussein ever since the days of Desert Storm, when George H.W. Bush was criticized, ridiculed and humiliated for not 'finishing the job' and ousting Hussein at that time;
2) Bush, Cheney and their Exxon-Mobile buddies want all that OIL swimming underneath Iraq's sands so they can continue to feed America's addiction of cheap, easily-accessible foreign OIL;
3) Ever since World War II, the giant U.S. military-industrial complex recognized just how profitable war could be. So they bought up all the politicians, hired pricey lobbyists, and formed special interest groups to encourage and promote 'war'. Thus, the U.S. was involved in the Korean Conflict; the Cuban Missile Crisis; the Cold War; Vietnam and Desert Storm, all for the sake of PROFIT.
My opinion of the 'war' is that it has been a debacle - an event that should have never been allowed to happen, but the most contemptible, incompetent, evil, arrogant, greedy, cowardly U.S. Congress in history allowed Bush to have his way and play soldier so that Halliburton, the Carlyle Group, and other federal government favored contractors could make billions off the American taxpayers. All for the sake of MONEY, these war profiteers were willing to kill 3,000 people inside the World Trade Center's twin towers on 9-11-01, kill more than 675,000 Iraqi citizens for no justifiable reason, and kill over 3,300 U.S. soldiers. It's a despicable, cowardly act for which Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld & Company should all face an international tribunal and be tried for high crimes against humanity. If convicted, they all deserve to be hanged, just as they arranged to hang Hussein. -RKO- 04/15/07

Answer 2

I hate the GOVERNMENT! They have to be the single most IGNORANT IDIOTS RUINING LIVES!!! And for what? OIL? or is it something else.I too was in the services,I was fortunate to be out b4 the war begain.I can't even imagine being shot down by my own ppl.What is this a game to the Government let alone the AMERICAN PPL ALLOWING THIS TO BE OVERLOOKED? Come on,this is the most RETARDED THING! Are we really that ridiculously trained or is it that the troops are soooo over spent they are barely keeping their heads above water? This GOVERNMENT SUCKS! They have the power and they have the say so it continues and we do nothing about it because why? Are we just afraid to be wrong so wrong now that we can't do anything right? The future in this Country, this World is in the hands of the most selfish, immature and ignorant adults rather SO-CALLED ADULTS. I KNOW MANY KIDS,YOUNG KIDS WITH MORE SMARTS THEN OUR PRESIDENT AND HIS PARTY!

Answer 3

It is said that war is Hell, much is risked in combat and the Fog of War is one of those events which can be traumatizing.
Throughout history, wars like this one, have been waged and countless men have died. A wise Rabbi from Galillee once warned that there would be many more wars to come. In my opinion the the war in the Middle East is a herald of the ''birthing pains" to come. The beginning of the End, but do not be troubled, these things must come to pass. All who have faith shall be delivered.

Answer 5

Isn't that the marine motto shoot first and ask questions later? Just like the hunters that kill their own hunting companions, they pull the trigger and don't even know what they're about to hit! Do you know anything more foolish?

Answer 6

I hope to God that are soldiers will be pulled out of there soon...since when is gunfire "friendly"?as usual it is all politics...sign the bill for more equipment. and keep troops there-don't sign for more...send our troops home!
