    truthfully, i dont think any of us know for sure what this war is about.

    + one for oil
    + one for security from dic(k)tators.
    + one for americans being bullys

    in sitting here thinking about this whole thing, ive realized something. If i can believe that one man and a group of his colleagues can use weapons of ANY kind on another country in the middle east, why cant i think the same thing about our country? (as much as i dont want to)

    Ive realized that if i were to walk into a room full of people and just yell out "he uses weapons against other countries to get what he wants", i could be talking about dozens of world leaders, including Iraq, including America.

    Maybe force is never justified and humanity should never move down that path.

    back to the point of this thread, i support our troops right now. And while im not "pro-war" and not "anti-use of force", my fellow countrymen are being shot at right now. Their lives are in danger and mine is not (directly) because of them. And i dont support Iraqi troops because they are shooting at my fellow Americans. Yes i support our troops over there right now, even though im not quite sure how to feel about the people that put them there.
