I cannot say if I agree or not

Will, resolve, suffering to achieve goals speaks only to prosecuting a war, not to cause nor to whether it should be entered into in the first place.

Justice must be the underlying fundamental which civilized nations consider before firing the first shot.

We represent justice poorly here -- when our leaders feel perfectly comfortable leading the nation into an illegal war, using rigged information to justify the action, knowing full well in advance that many thousands of innocent lives would be lost. All to meet a "goal".

Yet this president recently in a "civilized" debate with supreme sanctimony defends on his honor "life" found as a few mere cells in a test tube. That segment offered an amazingly clear view of the hypocricy behind Bush's famed will and resolve.

Clearly one form of life is more precious than another, in this man's warped theology.

I cry first for the bodies crushed by our depleted uranium tipped bombs, bodies of innocent children, women and men. An innocent life in Iraq is worth more than a billion unshaped unrecognizable cells in test tubes. An innocent life taken in Iraq demands justice - whether that life was taken by the knife of the beheader, or the hands of a pilot of a "coalition partner" aircraft, far overhead.
