I do not agree with it. I think that the President's friends have investments over there and they think that they should use the US army to defend their investments. (Oil)

I am totally against the war, however, people who join our military go in knowing that even if it's not necessarily a war they would back, they have comitted to doing their job.  I might also say that no matter what war or why - they have my absolute respect for being a part of a bigger picture that may cause them great harm or even death.  I salute all of them.  Bush, however, can kiss my flabbly butt.

First of all, (no offense) get some english lessons... I don't understand a single word you said. I agree with war when it is necessary, like the war we're fighting right now. It is a just war, because if we hadn't gone over and done what we did, they would be over here bombing what they please. Seriously people shut up with the whole "Be tolerant" thing and realize THEY WANT AMERICA GONE. Remember sept. 11th? Iraq was in the streets dancing... so yes I agree with it. Wow sorry that whole thing sounded really mean, I don't mean to offend but sometimes war protesters just get on my neeerves man

Here we go, rualive84 =)\n\nParty affiliation: I vote the person, not the party.  Registered as an undecided.\n\nIn my humble opinion, I find that it is unfair for anyone to judge what they, themselves haven't done.  I would never want to be President.  I would never want to be exposed to sensitive information and have to make educated, long lasting decisions that place many person's lives at risk.  I will say this, however, today people certainly have ample reason to be pessimistic about Iraq, but they also need to understand the long-term positive consequences it could have on Middle Eastern reform. Although it's not possible to achieve consensus on whether we should have gone to war, there should be agreement about what's now at stake. \n\nUltimately, the United States' failure in Iraq is not good for anyone. It is not good for the Iraqi people. It doesn't help the prospects for Israeli-Palestinian peace. It won't help achieve better human rights in countries such as Saudi Arabia or Egypt. It won't stop Iran from pursuing nuclear weapons. And, of course, it won't give our troops the 'mission accomplished' homecoming they deserve.\n\nI have many friends in Iraq and they need support.  They don't all believe in the publicized reasons for going to war, but they are all better than we are because they follow the path of freedom and righteousness.  The Iraqi people deserve to be free.\n\n((As far as being judged by God.  Well, I don't really think that was your question, but I do know that it is not our right to speak for Him.  He will judge us all in His own way.))

Well..... I commend our government.. Look around at other countries I mean you would be killed in some of the countries for even posting something like this. We have so many rights and take them for granted. I would like to take this opportunity to thank our troops for protecting me and my family.

I really appreciate your sentiment for it is what we were all brought up to believe is good about this country.  But may  I suggest that this is not a war.  It is an occupation by the United States of another country.  We were told that the people of Iraq were being held in oppression by the horrible dictator Saddam Hussein, and that they would be throwing flowers at our troops for setting them free, we would be welcomed with open arms.  Why do you suppose we have had to stay for three years, fighting door to door with citizens who desperately wanted us to enter their country and set them free?  If our policy was so concerned about their human rights, why are they fighting us to the death?  I offer this thought for discussion, for it sounds to me like we were not told the truth about what we are doing there, and the Iraqi people have made it very clear with the sacrifice of the own blood, that they do not like what we are doing?  If we were oppressed by a dictator and someone came in to set us free out of the goodness of their heart, would we fight them door to door for doing so?  I think not.

I feel that the War is not only just but necessary. As a Marine I don't expect you to understand because you only see what the liberal press reports. You don't see what is really going on over here. Women are no longer being forced into rape chambers, Men are no longer being put through shredders, Iraqis are proud to vote, You know that thing that so many of you take for granted. You want Iraq to be free and have the same freedoms you have, but you don't have the patience for how long it my take. How long did it take for America to get it right? Oh we still don't have it right, but we still have it better than any other country. If you insist on complaining, move out of the country to a 3rd world country and then when you can't find your make-up or your TV, then tell us Marines we are doing wrong!

Ive seen the loose change video. I still support the USA. I admit I must play devils advocate to both sides. I don't believe either. Not the "official story", or "loose change."\nI believe its more likely a combination of the two. Somewhere in between both side's agenda. I think that the government probably has a pretty legitimate reason for falsifying some of the information, but doesn't do well in the cover up department. While much of the rest is just over-speculation driven by conspiracy theorists. \nI think that the war in Iraq is good for our military, but bad for that region. I think that it was implemented under the guise of the search for WMD, but was actually for military position for the long time troublesome Iran & palestine. \n\nTo win a war you need 2 things for certain, power and position. The USA has the power, but lacked the position.\nIraq is that position. Seems clear to me. I do not feel sorry for those who serve the military, they made that choice full well knowing what the outcome could be. I do feel sorry for the Iraqies though, but believe still that the aftermath could be truly liberating for their population. \nOnly time will tell. \nThe only thing that is certain is that the US Federal Government is overwhelmingly corrupt. \nWe have a broken system at home. Therefore we should think incredibly hard about pusshing our system onto other nations.

War is regrettable in most any circumstance. I am a veteran, and to see my brethren have to lay down their lives is never something that is easy to deal with. HOWEVER, in the world situation today, terrorism is something that must be battled HEAD ON. We can not sit back passively and wait to be struck again. While war is something that is hard to look at, many times it is necessary. In battling for preserving our safety, it is necessary in today's world that we battle those who would commit terrorism, and those who would openly support it to strike at the United States. While I hope the war ends as quickly as possible, I do not wish for our troops to leave until stability is achieved to a large degree in Iraq. The best hope for more stability in the Middle East is to have a functioning government that is by the people and for the people. Freedom is contagious, and hopefully those in other Middle Eastern countries see and feel the benefits, and strive towards a free and open government in the other countries they reside in. The tide of freedom is a strong one, and much like the ocean it is hard to hold back.\n\nSo support the war effort, and hope for it to continue as long as it needs to, but not longer than it needs to. Pray for the concept of free government to spread like wildfire in the Middle East, so that the entire world is a safer place, and a better place for all peoples.

I have been in the military for 21 years.  I love my country and would defend it to the death, but when I "go off to war", I would say I am more passionate about my brothers and sisters serving with me.  I don't really think about the political side of things.  I just want my people and myself to come back alive and in one piece. \n\nThere are many factors that affect how someone views war and the list is large, but when the bullets start flying I would bet most soldiers don't think of country, glory, or the reasons they are there, but the basics like survival.  \n\nI will put more in later.  Got to go help the wife with Thanksgiving stuff.
