Man I am sorry to hear of any loss of life and it must be tough for your family. That being said I don't agree with your take on the war. My opinion is that George Bush was told by U.S. Intelligence that WMD's were in Iraq and Saddam didn't help his country by refusing access at times to the inspectors. Our country wanted someone to pay for the attacks on american soil and anyone associated with the Taliban was going to be judged. Now the Democrats are acting like crawfish and backing up because it's not politically correct. Democrats and Republicans voted on the war not just Bush, blaming him is short sighted at best. The war being for oil and money doesn't hold any water either. How much are we paying for oil now? Was there ever a war that everyone agreed on? People's views on each war probably mimic this war. (Why are we there? It's none of our business! Bring our troops home!) I have read about several wars and come to this conclusion, war ***** no easy way to say it.
You won't find a man or woman on here that feels anything but sorrow for your loss as well as the thousands or other families but attacking another member on here is wrong. He mean't no disrespect. I love these discussions but calling names and throwing accusations out cheapens the whole thread.
