I believe war should be a last resort. Maybe that should have changed after 9 11. I think the war on terrorism will never end. We might prevent some acts of terrorism but it is impossible to prevent 100 percent of terrorist acts. Richard Reid (the shoe bomber) probably came close to causing the plane to crash.
I really wish that we had not had to go to war. I hope our government weighed their options before making the decision and I hope war was the right decision. Like you say the information is classified and we donā??t know the facts. The war might have prevented something worse than 911 from happening.
It looks like that would push a person to the limit to be a soldier in Iraq. With all the clothes the soldiers are wearing, it must be hard to survive in the heat. Do they require drills with nuclear, chemical, and biological suits, gas masks, OBAs?
I feel bad about the Military and the innocent Iraq civilians & women and children that are killed or suffering because of the war. I would not want to be in their shoes. I can't even begin to imagine what it would be like over there.
