<You tend to assume there is a division between our Military and ordinary civilians. Yet behind each serviceman are all his relatives who are typically proud of his efforts in serving his country.>

There is no relationship between supporting US troops and supporting this war. Our military did not decide to go to war in Iraq -- the war is a consequence of decisions made by politicians like Bush and Cheney and bureaucrats like Rumsfeld. Our soldiers did not decide they wanted to go to Iraq -- politicians ordered them to go. The issue is not who supports US troops -- not at all. The issue is who supports the politicians and bureaucrats who sent the troops.
