The greatest irony among the anti-war and warmongers, and applicable to the posters in this thread.

Who would stand up and defend to one's last breath if our country were invaded? Most of the anti-war posters in this thread would stand up and defend this country to their deaths. Why? Because they tend to uphold our Constitution and expect the the highest standards of our elective branches (Congress and Senate) and the Executive Office. They strive to put our highest offices in highest esteem in the world community, and expect the highest degree of credibility. They speak out when they see hypocrisies that can cause serious problems ahead that could be severely detrimental to the country. They are much more well informed and much wiser. Without any doubt, the most constructive information have been posted by the no-war posters.

On the other hand, and this is where the biggest irony of all, is that most of the warhawk posters here would have left this country if there were an imminent danger of being invaded, particularly by a much superior force. This is without any doubt, as it can be read from the messages and writings in this thread. There is too much primal instinctive reaction of saving their own skin and utter disregard for human lives particularly if they are not of their own kind. It is like "All you peons, scums of this society, you go out there and fight and die while I pack my bags and go to safety". I stated "most", not "all" of the warhawks. I realize a few warhawks are genuinely sincere of their unconditional support for the policies of the Presidential Office.
