"What I don't believe is that we went over there to 'liberate' them. "
this is entirely possible
"I saw an interview the other day of a US soldier... very redneck kind of guy... he said he signed up for military service a few days after 911 and has "been waiting for his chance to get revenge" and when asked if he thought that Saddam was also responsible for 911 he said "definitely." later in the interview he talked about the rush of getting his first kill, how excited he was."
and i'm hoping you don't think that his sentiments reflect all of our troops.
"this type of primitive barbaric warmonger attitude combined with the average blindly patriotic american lead by a gung ho trigger happy administration and you have a formula for disaster. "
blind patriotism is most definitley a formula for disaster, but this is generally typical for a democracy. we vote for the guy we think will make the right decision and we basically bungee jump our way through the next 4 years so to speak and hope he'll do what's in our interest.
