tell that to the Quakers.
Personally, I support the military, but not the military actions.

This is important to do this in the sense you want your soldiers to have what they need, to do a good job, and you don't want them to be abused by politicians with their agendas. I think we should pray for them, that their mission will brings positive results for both us, and the country we are fighting in. Also we should pray that they are not abused, and that if leaving, or cutting back forces, is the best thing for us and the world that it will happen.

I can't give a reason - because I don't agree with it.
I'm a pacifist and I live in the United States. I pray for our troops - and support them Spiritually. But I don't condone violence.
Namaste!

quite the opposite, I would say. It's the duty of religious people to tell their leaders that war is not God's way.

Not if their religion preaches non-violence, such as Christianity, in which case every Christian who supports the military is a hypocrite.
