<<war is good for everyone ( except....)>> for the guys that got killed. Their parents. Their sons and daughters. Their wives, girlfriends and lovers.

for the civilians maimed and the poipulation suffering under duress brought upon them.

If opposing this is to be idealistic, count me among them.

I supported the war all along in principle. Back in 1991 I was the only one in my grad school class at a discussion on that war arguing for pushing Saddam out of Kuwait and hopefully out of power.

My comments relate to:

1. The way the war was started and the failed American diplomacy that got there. Well maybe Saddam played that game better than he's fighting the war.

2. Apprehension about what happens after the war in Iraq.

3. Trying to get an accurate idea of what is really happening in Iraq to help understand what happens next.

I hope things sort out and Iraq turns into another South Korea or Taiwan (Japan is a bit too optimistic...) and not another Lebanon/Afghanistan.
