Good point pac-man. I'm not judging the opinions of any member here, or anywhere else. I am curious to see what effect the anti-war vocalization will have, ultimately, in Iraq. Will antiwar sentiment here in America and elsewhere have a lasting effect on the reconstruction, for example?
As for lives lost, what would you have me do here, in this forum? Shall I hold prayer services each and every time someone dies in Iraq due to the conflict? Should I post pictures of the event for proof? If the implication is that I don't place much importance upon innocent people dying in Iraq, I have to say you are mistaken.
I'm not trying to justify the war here. I'm simply trying to shed light on other things besides the insurgency. Violence isn't the only thing of relevance in Iraq.
