horrified by this war, I can't bring myself to condemn the vast majority of them. In fact, it is amazing how many of our troops feel exactly like I do and even how many of the officers. There are always animals, in and out of the military but the bulk of them are not animals.

Those of them that really want to go and kill the "ragheads" are few and far between. Most either go because they need the work, grew up in the military or actually think they are doing the right thing. I have personally met many smart, savvy, committed officers who are not pro-war.

This Administration, the war profiteers, oilmen, Neocons and the members of the intelligence services who are in their employ started this war with the BLESSING of our elected representatives. Place the blame for how we got into this mess and why we are still there right where it belongs. Kick the bums out, Repuke and Dem alike that allowed this to happen and that allow it to continue.
