You've got to be kidding. Who wants America to lose the war? Hands up kiddies. I haven't seen anyone on this thread express that message (except conservatives making up views for liberals which they do not hold). Is there anyone here who wants America to lose? I am sure some people here think a win isn't possible, given the rather unbelievable objective our administration had, but that is nowhere near wanting America to lose. Let's try to avoid getting sucked in to miscasting one entire side of the debate in American politics, shall we? "Seems to me like this thread has deteriorated into a shouting match between people who want the US to lose the war in Iraq for reasons of their own, mostly because they think it will help get a Democrat elected Prez in 2004, or maybe help their puts go into the money, and people who are defending the US, and I am getting bored." Just amazing.

<<Let's try to avoid getting sucked into that.>> Ok, I can see why someone in New Zealand isn't worried about being a victim of terrorists. <<just three weeks after Spirit of America received the Marines' request — Spirit of America founder Jim Hake delivered $82,687 in television studio equipment to Camp Pendleton, Calif. The Marines packed the donated equipment and prepared it for shipment, and on May 1, the U.S. military flew it from March Air Force Base, Calif., to Iraq.<< Yep I donated. Thought it might help. I see where they got about 10 times in donations of what they asked for. I think that's better than great.
