1. Dishonesty and subsequent abuse of our armed forces
for political gain or enrichment of profiteers is never worth the life of any of our service people.

2. It also wasn't worth the life of one innocent Iraqi
I don't think U.S. lives are worth more than others.

to remove these evil governmens without harming the civilians.

I'm not happy with the war but I'll never believe that the world should be idle when an evil government is in control of any country.

11. In my fantasies...
I plunk the whole Neocan Cabal in the center of Fallujah, unarmed, and without any supplies whatsoever, and tell them to walk to Baghdad where their pardons will be waiting for them...
