Do You Support The War On Terror ? (And Why ? or Why Not)?
447112
FDR (a truly great American President) once said, "the only thing to fear, is fear it self".  Fear (or terror if you like), is an emotion.  You can not go to war against an emotion.  Our government is abusing our fear to generate support for a War that makes the friends of George Bush even more rich.\n\nIf you are afraid of terrorists, you are being manipulated.  The real enemy of the state is the Bush administration.  We are not winning, we are only making more enemies.  People who used to admire us now hate us, because of the so called "war on terror".\n\nFight your fear and think with reason, not with rage.

I don't support the war in Iraq... But if there were a draft tomorrow than I would support it more than I do now.. It would help people understand what it's like to have somebody they know or themselves over there. Maybe they would think twice next time before they blindly follow a president into it...

Read 1984.  It is not a war on terror.  It is a war.  Just a reason to go to war.  It is ambiguous.  It can continue indefinitely.  It has no terminus.  It is an excellent reason to violate rights.  It is an excuse to seize power and not let go.  It tramples constitutional rights.  It is a pseudo-martial law. (I could go on, but I won't)

I haven't.\n\nBut i was just reading someone elses answer about 9/11.\n\nIt was about the belief of US gov involvement in 9/11\n\nThey said the couldn't see how a president would just sit by and let 1000's die as an excuse to start a war.\n\nWhat kind of bs answer is that??\n\n\nSome people know that 9/11 was a government job to start the  war all in the name of $$$ and oil.\n\nI wonder how some people can just sit there and defend bush and his bs administration, with what is going on all around them and the failures they have made and the impact on the US and it's economy. \n\nIt is amazing how many people defend Bush, especially on the media..with all the democrat bashing..\n\nI am neither a Dem or Rep..i am for the TRUTH.\n\nThe only terrorists are Cheney, Bush, Rice And Blair.

Yes, I support our troops.\nI think the invasion of Iraq was a horrible mistake, but that certainly is not the fault of the troops.\nVery interesting points you make, although the rationing of resources I feel would be unnecessary.\nI would agree with your other two suggestions however.

Yes, I approve of George Bush 110%.\n\nAnd before any of you people start to label me anything, let me just say that I'M A DEMOCRAT. \n\nThe only reason why I support George Bush is because he is actually RIGHT when it comes to fighting the terrorists. He has balls, and he doesn't wait around for crap to happen, he knows what needs to be done and he does it. \n\nThe people who criticize him and claim that he's a "murderer" and say that he "lacks respect for human rights", you all sicken me. \n\nIf you REALLY want to see what it's like without human rights, take a trip to Cuba, China, North Korea, Iran, or any other country where a dictatorship has been in power for the past 10+ years. \n\nDisagreeing with our President is one thing, but to say that he's a murderer is just outright stupidity in my opinion.

We should not support this war at all. Our president just wanted to show that he was reacting in some way. However, he has created a mess in Iraq.

Thank you.  It's nice to know who our friends are and believe me, the respect and admiration goes both ways.  Though if you want a true look at who these "anti-war" protestors are, follow the link.  The zombietime "hall of shame" is enough to make one's dinner return.  However, the photographer also highlights the good people in the counter-protests and those who oppose terrorism in the "Bus-19" event.\n\nIt's amazing to see the difference between the rabid "anti-war" leftists and those who oppose them with dignity and self-respect.\n\nJust so one knows, I use "anti-war" as these "tolerant" and "open-minded" protestors seem to support any war in which the USA and her allies are destroyed and thus are only "anti-war" when the USA and her allies are winning.  Though, ironically, these same people are the first the terrorists would kill if given the chance (the "Queers for Palastine" group obviously didn't read Islamic Law's view on homosexuality)...  A chance the Armed Forces of America, England, and Australlia not to mention police and intelligence agencies world-wide will not give the terrorists.  \n\nYes, the irony of it all is the same people the leftists hate so much are protecting those same leftists from the terrorists and dictators they seem to love.

Great question, Alex.\n\nI think most Americana's would.  I know that I would, for sure.  But then I believe that if my country is at war, I need to stand behind the troops and my president.  It doesn't really matter if I agree or not, I still need to be supportive. \n\n\nopen4one---LMAO!

i don't know. personally I have always been against it and have believed from the beginning that this has been handled the wrong way. i'm no politician, but i don't see how you can handle terrorism by waging war on a country that now we are saying we are liberating. what kind of hipocrits are we? look what we did to their country and families. Do you think those individuals were responsible for a maniacs choices? They had no more control over the situation then you and I  and the men in charge of it is in hiding and the countymen are still suffering as are our boys and girls.

I believe we are fighting a war of \nPEACE THROUGH STRENGTH\n\nThe radical terrorists believe we are wrong - YES - but they also think we are weak and that is one of the reasons they attacked us.  We have to show them we are not.  Will that solve the problem  entirely - NO.  We'll work on the next phase after that.  this is not a ONE STEP war on terror.

It depends on what you mean about support.\n\nI think, in retrospect, the invasion of Iraq was a mistake.  It has taken away too much political capital that would be better spent stopping what it turns out may be the real threat of the Middle East... Iran.\n\nI still believe in the best values of the US and what it stands for but I think the current administration has led us down a path that I have greater and greater difficulty supporting.\n\nDoes that make me unpatriotic?  I hope not.

That war question is a hard one to answer. I am glad that those brave soldiers out there fought for my freedom in my country. And if someone invaded your country and wanted to take away your freedoms what would you think? I hate war and I hate innocent people dieing but there is evil out there and we need to protect what is ours
