Is Anyone Actually Still In Favor Of the War?
    #2058586 - 10/30/03 08:11 PM (20 years, 4 months ago)

Seriously-this war seems to have angered both parties. For the more compassionate of us, thousands have died, and for the more Republican of us, the economy has gone to shit. American soldiers are still dying, and the U.S. has been made a global mockery. Who here truly feels NOW that this war was worth it?

Depends on wether the situation in Iraq actually improves or not. If it collapses back into another totalitarian regime, then no.

I don't know...it's turning into a real mess. I feel sorry for all parties involved. (I.E. U.S servicemen/women and the average Iraqi citizen)

I'm sticking by my origional concept: Democrats and Republicans both have certain groups that they like to shit on. The Dems got 8 years to shit on their victims, it was time to give those people a break and let the Republican's choice victims carry the weight for a while.

But since Republicans shit twice as hard as Democrats, it's time for a democrat president for another 8 years.

This is assuming that a third party won't win, a safe assumption.

People here are pretty hard headed. Plus, they sit behind a computer screen all day hawking for the war.

It's hard to feel compassion when you rarely have human contact in meaningful ways. Places like this make it easier for people to not care about reality.. only their engineered perception.

Sadly, you'll get alot of yeas on this one.

Jacob's Ladder
by Chumbawamba

Like the sermon on the mountain
Says the dumber got dumb
Hellfire and brimstone
Swapped for oil and guns
When we re pushing up daisies
We all look the same
In the name of the Father, maybe
But not in my name

On this Jacob's Ladder
The only way up is down
One step from disaster
Two to make the higher ground
Jacob's Ladder

A million lifetimes
Left dying in the sun
In the streets down in Whitehall
Dog's picking at the bones
9/11 got branded
9/11 got sold
There'll be no-one left to water
All the seeds you sowed

On this Jacob's Ladder
The only way up is down
One step from disaster
Two to make the higher ground
Jacob's Ladder

On this Jacob's Ladder
The only way up is down
One step from disaster
Two to make the higher ground
On this Jacob's Ladder
The only way up is down
One step from disaster
Two to make the higher ground
Jacob's Ladder

Would you say that stopping a madman from gassing his own people is something that people who have "human contact in meaningful ways" would support, or be against?

Last week I was working in a trauma center getting way more human contact in one night than most people get in a month. I have a pretty good idea what people are like when they have bullet holes in them, broken femurs, or other assorted boo-boos.

I did a little work in the ped section, which is kind of hard to take. You have to do things that you know scare and hurt the kids you are working on.

I think most of the people here probably have some sort of life aside fromt he internet.

I agree, most being the keyword in that last sentence.

Not all, unfortunately.

you can not create peace thorough war, i never supported it and never will, nor will i ever support any sort of armed forces or armies of any sort,

PEACE

"in times of widespread chaos and confusion, it has been the duty of more advanced human beings - artists, scientists, clowns, and philosophers - to create order. In such times as ours however, when there is too much order, too much m management, too much programming and control, it becomes the duty of superior men and women and women to fling their favorite monkey wrenches into the machinery. To relieve the repression of the human spirit, they must sow doubt and disruption"

honestly wingtux does it matter?! one dictator replaces the other, empires rise and fall, there is always someone repressing those who don't stand for themselves. Look at the waste that was ww2, it was NOT worth it....not to imply the alternitive to be better.
But usa developed nuclear weapons in that war....we may yet anihilate ourselves with them,...ist that worth it?

We know inny enjoys shooting at animals for example because he's said so.

How about cause alot of em arent even smart enough to turn off their listing on the Who's Online portion of the site and you can see that they are constantly here? I mean, if yer gonna be here that much, you should atleast have some dignity as to not advertise it.

i wasn't talking to you alex.

i asked psilokitten how she knows that "not all" of the people that post here have a life away from their computer.

seems like a rather presumptous statement to me.

much like saying that people here "sit behind their computers all day hawking for the war" and "rarely have human contact in meaningful ways".

i think the war will probably end up being a good thing for most of the population of iraq.

i don't think it has been, and i doubt it will be, a good thing for americans... and if it does end up being a good thing, it will probably be because it makes us richer, not safer (if profit is indeed the motive, i don't see how the iraq war represents a good investment of $87 billion, but maybe it is...).

i don't think hussein was a threat to the united states, and i don't think our military should have been called up against him.

that said, he was a nasty dude and the world is better without him. he should have been dealt with by his neighbors and\or the people of iraq. it wasn't our business.
