Vets, your thoughts on war.
Advertisements [?]
Having been to Iraq in 91 just after the first Gulf War, my feelings on war are now changed from what they were.

I feel the war in Afghanistan was justified, and I feel we did not concentrate enough effort there to insure stability, and get the main target.

As for Iraq..I originally thought it justified, but after so much has come to light, including the Duelfer report, I no longer think that.

WWI and II, very justified.

Korea-I need to read more on to make an educated opinion.

Vietnam-We should have stuck with just sending some "advisors",and withdrawn when Kennedy was thinking of doing so. That was LBJ's biggest screw up.

Your thoughts?
