Respect skeptical.
My father was orphaned during the last world war.
Seems like everyone thinks war is like a video game, precise bombs and only evil people being killed.

dear all of you
i was in war (4 years duration).
when you survive destruction an post destruction period, you realise that there is no reason strong enough to start any kind of aggression on this planet.give your voice against war. it`s least you can do but it`s still something.

"we arent' sending over our troops to invade iraqi civilians and drop bombs on thier heads,"
Let us be clear about what the Bush-Blair attack will do to our fellow human beings in a country already stricken by an embargo run by America and Britain and aimed not at Saddam Hussein but at the civilian population, who are denied even vaccines for the children. Last week the Pentagon in Washington announced matter of factly that it intended to shatter Iraq "physically, emotionally and psychologically" by raining down on its people 800 cruise missiles in two days.

A World Health Organisation document estimates that "as many as 500,000 people could require treatment as a result of direct and indirect injuries".

"we arent' sending over our troops to invade iraqi civilians and drop bombs on thier heads,"
do you think the Iraqi armi will be out in the middle of the desert with a big bullseye on their foreheads?
the Iraqi army doesn't want to fight. They will be intermeshed with the civilian population, fighting for survival as bombs get dropped on then from thousands of feet in the sky.
casualties will be enourmous.

"if you are in the army and you're going to a country to kill innocent men, women, and children - fuck you."
yeah, i agree, but that's not the US's plan... as stated previously... we arent' sending over our troops to invade iraqi civilians and drop bombs on thier heads, as much as you seem to drool over the idea... that won't be the case.

"disarmament wasnt asked yesterday vespa. its been asked 12 years ago when no troops were even on that side of the globe. "
We haven't stopped bombing them in 12 years.
That said, strong military presence has started to reap results according to Hans Blix. So why are the US/UK insisting on upping the ante to all out war right now? Why the rush to war now that positive results are shown?

yep...thats what we do. we kill innocent men women and children. kill kill, kill! fire, fire, fire! war war war!

Being an Idealist leads to a sad sad life.
Looking for human perfection in a world that does not want that perfection gets you nowhere
Some of us have very little and we must watch as our children starve and die of horrible diseases. Others, like to complain when their ice machine breaks and they have to drink warm sugar water. There are two sides to this coin and depending on how it's flipped - depends on where you end up.
We live in a world of invisible boundaries. Nation states and their religions have been programmed into our very DNA over billions of years. We, as humans, will always split into groups only to gleefully destroy other groups. It gives us a sense of purpose - a sense of self. We are only animals controlled by the instinct of greed and self preservation. To sit and think that this should change, that a world without war is somehow within our grasp - is futile. It will never be what you want it to be and you must realize the world for what it is - a brutal spec of sand in the incredible vastness of time and space.
Sit back and engoy the fun.
