I'm not a protester, but I dont want war either....

I may not be a protester and you wont see me waving signs against our President and military leaders. However, I am against this war and I will continue to speak about it, against it, or conversate about it the way I feel as an American.

Those Amendments makes our nation great, and we have choices, which is so much better than living like those people do. I've been there, and I know firsthand the sinking feeling waking up at 2am and sirens are going off. Trust me, even the hardest gung-ho man was scared to death on what was going to happen.

I can safely say that while some of these people oppose war more this time, its for good reason. We are lacking so much support and tired of the decisions and waiting game. Its all or nothing I'd say, we need to either attack these people and make a stand for ourselves, or talk more and look like we are standing down to the world.

As a peacemaker, I would think that we will have war, but not as soon as people think. I still think a few words makes all the difference in avoiding bombs dropping all over the place to flex our strength. Saddam thinks he can win. He lost last time and we depleted his forces from 1 million plus, to now 320,000. His armored divisions are cut in half, air support non existant...he cant and will not win.

I just dont want to see a war again...one is enough for me and thats the last one I ever want to see like that. Peace.

I hate to see our young ppl lose their lifes BUT...something has to be done to this monster, it's obvious he's NOT going to disarm peacefuly, nor will he step down in a peaceful manner, this monster HAS to go, one way or another, we cannot let him stay in power, if we don't do something this time, he will only get worse because of what we are doing, IF don't go in and bomb the living daylights outta him, we're gonna look like a bunch of damn cowards.....let the bombs fall where they may, it's either HIM or US, hmmmmm not a hard decision if you ask me!

but I dont want war either....

No one likes war rob

[Rob-TheStormChaser]

Well then, why is everyone hyping it every other post by saying: LETS ROLL ?? lets NOT! and say we did.

[chadtm80]

No one here wants war.... but we know what has to be done... dosent mean its what we wanted

[azsnowman]

Let's face it, NO ONE wants war BUT THE FACT remains, we have over 250,000+ troops over there who NEED the support of the American people and our allies, besides after Bush's speech tonight, who can honestly say, let's just leave him alone. To turn ones back on our troops is a disgrace to the uniform they so PROUDLY WEAR! NUFF SAID!

Agree snowman

I dont doubt that all of the buildup wont lead to war....I know from my own experiences of this, but I just wished we wouldnt favor it so heavily and take cuts from news sources and roll with it. We need to breath a little and lose the hype...we're not the media, but war will happen if it happens.

[wx247]

It has reached a point where we need to support the troops. I think the time to debate about the war is over. I was not happy about the prospect of war either, but the President and his advisors have made a decision and we must respect and stand behind him. If we don't... Saddam wins by seeing the division among us.

[Rob-TheStormChaser]

I dont doubt that the buildup over there will not go unnoticed and unwarranted. I'm sure we'll get to put all of that to good use in the future.
