The Spartan soldier who fought against the invading Persian army will be always remember for his courage in the face of certain death. Although I feel sorry that many of the American young are sent to Iraq, I can not see them in the same heroic light as that Spartan soldier. This is an unnecessary war that was sold to the American people under false pretenses.
The people who exercise their constitutional rights by speaking against an unnecessary war are patriots and are not colluding with terrorists.
"Please recognize that it is possible for an American to disagree with you on the war in Iraq and still love God, and still love this country, just as much as you do. In America, disagreement with the policies of the government is not evidence of lack of patriotism."

Just think that a soldier can be part of a war crime. So just because ones government says that it is OK to invade another country does not mean it is indeed legal. Now in view of that, a soldier can be a terrorist and a jihadi a freedom fighter. Depends on where you are looking from.
And only enemies call each other names.So what one man calls a terrorist may actually be a liberator. So basically, you can never be sure that they are indeed that to start off with.

First and foremost - a terrorist is NOT a freedom fighter. In fact, they are fighting AGAINST freedom.
Freedom fighters don't purposely target citizens, they don't slaughter people who risk all to vote in a free election, they don't cut an innocent person's head off just to make another video and they don't threaten to kill or convert all who question their beliefs.
There is no parallel between defending ones country vs. an ideology of hatred and domination and the tactics used by its followers..

the answers odvious no ? the islamic fundamentalists
the point is that 9/11 and 7/7 were inside jobs , the official stories for each event are nothing more than conspiracy theorys and these events suck the masses in , our governments at the very top are making things worse to push there agenda its tryed and tested as you can see through out history Problem ,Reaction , Solution.
the middle east is not controlled by the new world order we are , by creating false flag events they gained the backing of the people to hit a country that had nothing to do with it creating a war that cannot be one and a global never ending enemy .
the terrorists are dubya , bliar and there new world order controllers who right the policies that affect mine and your life look past the divide and conquer propaganda and look a little deeper the info is out there for everyone to find .

Who isn't complaining about Jihadis.
I support soldiers who defend thier country (real support - not just lip service while refusing to pay them a living wage or provide them with adequate protection or even health care after they are injured). And I despise terrorists. That's why I wish we would stop fighting unrelated wars and concentrate on finding the people who attacked us (I'll give you a clue - they ain't in Iraq)

Neither.
It's the hypocrit who sees a moral injustice, but stands there and does NOTHING about it.....then later whines when things didn't go the way they would have wanted it to.
The soldier at least is willing to die fighting for his country or belief.
The terrorist, although wrong by their methods.....is doing only what they were bred into - from someone else's anger showing them the way.

Depends. The Iraqies are just defending their country so I'd either side with them in the war to begin with or else join the attackers and then blow them sky high when they're least suspecting it. You know, for some reason I can't get accepted into the army over here. Hmmmm....

I haven't seen any complaining about OUR troops.
They don't use suicidal mass murdering to validate their lives.
No morality at all there. So since black towels have NO morals, there is no equivalence.

obviously the second one.... what´s wrong with a soldier defending his country´s interests...(that´s what you meant wasn´t it)
i seriously hate all jihadis with a passion... call me a biggot, call me racist, i don´t care.... these mother flippers are the scum of the earth and we should have no mercy on them.
i would almost condone torture on these criminals. why? i think they need a taste of their own medicine.... they kill innocents in markets, in schools in hospitals.... they abduct people and torture them for days, shoot them in the head, then dump their body in the streets of bagdad.....
peaceful religion my ***
