Fuck, i don't support the troops in any meaningful way. Neither do most of you. If i believed in this occupation i'd most likely be helping with it. I wouldn't be sitting on my ass here in america, pretending i had some sort of notion about making the world a better place that didn't involve me making zero sacrifices.

I like the idea that people, not just our troops, won't die unnecessarily. I like the idea that somehow some amount of regional stability will come out of our ill advised little affair in iraq. I like the idea that whoever ends up in power in iraq won't be as bad as saddam. I just don't necessarily believe that there's much hope for any of these things to actually happen.
