How can you claim to support anyone while saying that everything they are doing is wrong and that they are doing it for all the wrong reasons? "Support the troops, but not the war" is one of the biggest cop-outs in history. The best way to support your fiance is to hope that the things he is trying to accomplish over there are accomplished and that he comes home safely after leaving Iraq in better shape than he found it. |

You cannot "support" the troops and not the mission.
You can care for them, but not support them! If you asked them, 95 of 100 would tell you they are doing the right thing. Why oh why don't you believe THEM??!!!!!! |

I absolutely support our troops, including several personal friends who have been or are currently stationed overseas.
I just want them home safe, not acting as a police force for some other country. |

I agree with you. And i feel that the people who declared war should be right there along side of our sisters brothers fathers and sons and daughters. |

You mean Troops? Yes I 100% agree with you,innocent boys and girls who believe(misguidedly)that they are dying for their country and not just for oil dollars. |

I regard the 'support the troops but not the war' talk as nothing but hot air.
How can you 'support the troops' when you are trying to tear down what their sacrifices have achieved?
The only people who can cause us to lose in Iraq are people like you. Are you going to stab us in the back - again?
And if you do not allow us to win - who do you expect to fight for you next time? |

As a former soldier, I am always offended when I hear this statement. You cannot have it both ways to appease yourself. The war is bad, and any war that lasts this long will always fall out of favor with the public. That is way the President said this will be a long and hard fought war that we will not "waiver" from and we will not "fail." Most people think that this could have been done by now if it was properly planned for, but I say that you can't properly plan for anything of this magnitude. Our democracy wasn't fully established in 3 years, why do we expect a place with the history of turmoil like Iraq will be able to do it faster than we did. |

as long as we are not spporting the ones disgracing us with their abuse over there. its only natural that even if we dont spport the war we should still hope that our own people stay safe. but maybe they should make a sticker saying a dont support terroism but i support the people of iraq. |

I feel so bad for the troops. I know people who are in that thing. why don't they bring them home and help with louisiana's rebuilding? I will put in a good word for your fiance. |

Well, I think you are marrying the wrong guy then. If he feels the same way then he has the wrong job. Why is he in the military? does he no longer feel the sense of duty? NOONE likes war, it is necessary. We are a military family. I wish noone had to go, but I am glad that they are doing their jobs over there. There is no way to support the troops, and not the mission. Pick an argument. Do you think it is being supportive when you say "I wish you weren't doing what you are doing?" |

That should be the message.
We love our people but don't agree with the war. Our children are being faithful soldiers. They must fight and they do with all there might. It is our job as a government by the people to control our government. It is the people of United States that is allowing this government to put our troops in arms way. God Bless
I was there!!!!!!
I admire the courage and honor of our Armed Forces. |

i agree with you. My boyfriend was in iraq for over a year and i still know people over there, and i think that there needs to be an end somewhere. We are losing men and women every day, and its not making a difference to our government. |

I definitely agree. They don't get to pick what wars we are in they just pray we do stuff for the right reasons. |

I am German and married to an American soldier who is currently deployed in Iraq the second time both of my brothers in law where already down there for one year and the husband of my cousin is right now for one year deployed in Afghanistan i must say i sure don't like it since we have a little baby boy and he missed out on his whole first year but it is necessary you must see how long you Americans stayed after world war two (you guy´s are still here) in Germany and helped setting here everything up right again and i must say most people are damn thankfully for that i don't think we would have the same life we have right now without you´re guys help. Well i´m not pleased that the German Parliament didn't help you in Iraq they should get there thumbs out of there asses and head down to help .....that´s my own opinion |
