I've been unclear as to how I feel now that the war is going on, so I'm going to go with "have serious misgivings". I feel that the war shouldn't have been started, but since it's already underway and apparently WON, I'd have to say that the SOLDIERS deserve our support, but the government that sent them have caused me to have "serious misgivings".

Oil Sux. DEFY.

I support the soldiers, but I think it is time to pull out. We got rid of Sadam, and the problem now is that every jhiadist is looking at our boys as a soft target.

You leave now and a vaccum is created for someone worse than SH.

Take responsibility for creating the vaccum and hope to hell that the next US imposed leader of Iraq like SH is better, but don't count on it.

And again, it's the Iraqi people's country...let them do what they want.

whidden, you know me.

i support the war and think it's justified.

Put me up with Sierradaddy

HMMM... where does Sayzak go? (humming to self)...

Put me...

*pause*

(pacing back and forth)

*beeds of sweat*

With Larke and whidden.

Well, lemme see… … … … … … umm, count me in with Larke and Whidden. (Shocking isn't it?)

Shadow and SD, por favor.

-HECK!

I don't agree with the reason we are in there. However, now that we are we have to stay the whole time and get the job done. I want to see this done right since apparently it was worth doing at all.

Aight, I am adding as we go along, if I miss-word your intentions, let me know, and I can change it to more accurately describe how you feel.

It's a lot more complicated than just "for" or "against", aint it?

I pm'd Fuscia for an update about where she wants to be added, waiting on that,

and SWTT had a reply but I'm not sure where she wants to go on the list, if she wants to be put on there at all.


(For right now, I will put her down as an unabashed Bush supporter, who is in love with Dick Cheney and thinks the war in Iraq is cool.) <---------100% j/k

Seems to me that fuscia would probably best be listed with Brochu, but let's wait and see if I'm right... (Fuscia, don't change now, just to make me look bad... )

Im pritty much for the Invation ... But half think it was for oil, and half think it was to get a couple of bad men out of the country ... where do i fit

what ... "down"?

Whidden,

Sign me up for the "You made your bed now lie in it" category, how's that?

*Thinks and scratches head and other parts for a while ...*

I guess i support the "war" / invation

might as well put me in every category now and save time (Joke) then im sure to be with the cool people , im just waiting for them to turn up ...

I support this war and any war we get into that will make more nations into a democracy. Iraq will prove to be a brilliant strategy for our administration.

Free nations and freedom from tyranny lends motivation for people to grow into self improvement. The US is a prime example of how rapidly a country grows where there is freedom.

So is Israel.

Iran will be sore pressed to start anything with a free Iraq on their border.

Israel has already been armed with "Smart bombs" by the US.

I totally support Bush and his agenda.

Libya has already thrown in the towel.

Terrorists will fade if the countries that support them decide it will be invaded by our wonderful country.

We are the guardians of the entire world along with Great Britain.

I am grateful that Bush is our leader.

ummmm I don't like being categorized but what the hey

put me under "I do not support the war"

you can list me with sierradaddy, heck, fuscia and shadow stalker.

I could probably say a lot here, but I won't.

I do not support the war.
I do not support the administration.
I do support the soldiers.

I want to thank peeps for dropping in,

when new people show up, they can get an idea of who is thinking what.

I am against the war or any war for that matter.

i am against all war although i realize that sometimes war is necessary. the iraq war is not necessary. i do not support bush, his administration, or this war. i think that anybody outside of iraq doesn't truly know what the iraqi people need. but i also think that now we are fighting over there, we better finish the job and finish it well, because we were the ones who started this war.

i am a confused individual.

EleanorRigby,
It sounds like you are in the category I chose, the "You made your bed now lie in it category" perhaps???

Isn't support for the soldiers a given?

I thought this war was unjustified from the beginning, middle, and whenever the end comes. I don't understand the separation of supporting the soldiers though, I have family over there, I've seen a friend buried, and I've had friends who've been there but are now back, so the whole "misgivings" part, I always thought they were lying and thought the military action was unjustified, but you better sure as hell know that I support the troops, I almost joined the Reserves before I saw the results of the 2000 election, and then I knew we were going to Iraq.

So I guess you can put me down on either the list with Sierradaddy or Dekka because I really don't know where I fall. Would misgivings fall under "completely unjustified" too?

put me under "Does not support the war but thinks that McDonald's french fries r gud."

i love being [edit], in fact im in rather tipsy myself ... Mcy D's is pritty good ... Yes i think thats a good idea, wont tell you what tho


NB edited by self

Although, I havent been here for a while, I am still as american, more republican and for the Iraq war as I ever was.

Done!

Well now let's see, I supported the war from the get go. I think though that not finding WMD, doesn't mean that Saddam didn't have the intent. After all, he had the scientist, the technology, the means and the precursor agents. I mean he had Dr. Death and Dr. Germ. AND he used it in the past which means that he doesn't care who he hurts.

Just like the Iraqi lady that said we found the ultimate WMD called Saddam.

Have you seen the commercial done by the Iraqi Kurds? That's all I need to see to support us being there. Funny how most of the Iraqi's are happy we did what we did and it seems that nobody cares what they think.

The Iraqi's aren't trying to throw us out. They are not up at the UN saying get the Americans out. So as long as they want us there then we need to stay and protect them the best we can.

I saw the Kurd commercial. The "other" Iraq.


I thought it was cool.

I know this thread is old, but I hate seeing statements like this:

The war in Iraq is a complete waste because democracy and sharia law cannot mix.

The only think Muslims can decide democratically is who is going to oppress who.

Democracy ends with elections.

this war brought more death to the Iraqi people

I support the war completely. Just cuz we didn't find and chemical or biological weapons doesn't mean he didn't have any. WMDs can be destroyed.

Oh... Mcdonald's fries are so good. One of the first things I did when I got back from my last tour was gorge myself on fries. 11 months of MREs everyday... that was the best meal in the world.

H@ts-
Maybe you've been duped by the media. If you haven't noticed, the only thing that the news reports is tragedy and destruction. You never hear about the good things that happen in the world; only the bad. This leads to you and your simple mind to believe things that might not be true. You have been duped by the liberal media's propaganda.

I'm with h@ts on this one. I never felt like it was a good idea to begin with, going to war with Iraq over WMD's, POSSIBLE al-queda connections (when the Taliban and bin Laden were centralized and hiding in AFGHANISTAN...), etc...

And yet when every single reason has been rebuffed, every piece of logic knocked on its ass we still cannot even get a timetable withdrawl. Mind boggling.

-HECK!

Regardless of if you believe that the war is just or not the fact is this. It happened and we are there; and we are going to be there for years. If we were to pullout, there would be some serous consuequences. The death toll would spike as full out war and genocide would spread like wildfire across Iraq. Then one side would gain dominance over the others. Then some bloodthirst leader would rise to power and would brutally suppress the others. Either Sunni over Shi'a or vice verse but the Kurds would be suppressed regardless and Iraq would be in no better shape than it was before the war.
I am fighting this war for the rights and freedom of the Iraqi People. The same right that you and I have. The same rights that allow you to criticize me for helping others obtain these rights.
And so I will continue to fight for freedom so long as my fellow marines are in Iraq and across the world.
