my two cents on the war
Yesterday Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld held a press conference. There was a reporter there that brought up an interesting point?.

Why are the abuses of Iraqi prisoners a terrible thing, but the abuses of Iraqi civilians were ok?

So basically, we are more evil than Saddam Hussein.

Now, I?m in no way justifying what these soldiers are doing?if they are abusing Iraqi prisoners. However, all I?m saying is that it?s a little odd that France stands up now upset about the ten or so people that might have been abused by us. But the thousands of people who died under Saddam?s regime weren?t worth it to them.

Not to sound all pro Iraqi war on you. I mean, I was not for the war. But, I am for actually letting our leaders of this country lead. I didn?t have all the intelligence information that they did. And I was for taking Saddam out of power. His crimes against humanity were horrific. If the U.S. is going to police the world (arg!) we?ve got the police the whole thing.

This is a really great website: http://www.defendamerica.mil/iraq/mar2004/tni-1yr0318042.html Especially for those of you who are on the fence about the war. I may not have been in full support, but I do think it?s done more good than harm. This is hauntingly similar to what we found once we entered into Germany post WWII.
