Maybe we shouldn't be occupying other countries that didn't attack us. Ever thought of that? What if China came over and occupied your town? What would you do about it?

The point is, to many Arabs, we are imperialist occupiers. And they're not completely wrong. This isn't about the troops, it's about the Bushies at the top. Bush-Cheney and crew are corrupt and making huge amounts of money off this war. They clearly lied to us about why they had to invade, and to do so they let Osama and Al Qaida pretty much go free.

Meanwhile, the war was so badly and recklessly planned that it's actually made us less safe and has created more terrorism. So it's not only a big lie it's a big failure to boot, and you can't blame any peace-makers for that. 1850 dead troops are enough. Time to wrap it up, elect a new government in this country and do it right next time we want to nation-build.

I tell ya, it's scary to think what some of the anti-war types could seriously become capable of (i.e. becoming true terrorists or terrorist supporters themselves). EOM
