Its one of those situations where you can't say how you would react unless you (realistically) put yourself in another persons shoes.<BR/><BR/>As a reader of my blog, you know my feelings on the war. I hope you are aware, of how thankful I am of our troops. The men and women of our military do things I know myself am incapable of doing.<BR/><BR/>I wish peace, love, and understanding were capable of fixing this mess of a world we live in. Sometimes, war is inevitable. In the case of Iraq though, from my view, it wasn't. I just hope that things are set right for the people in Iraq, and the rest of the middle east.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03531414847817210475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14038129.post-1145254161464613462006-04-17T01:09:00.000-05:002006-04-17T01:09:00.000-05:00P.S. wow, my spelling sucks.

Truthfuly, having loved ones deployed affects how you look at things. I know it shouldn't, but it does. I have the same conclustion...I am not sure. I see good and bad. I have not freaking idea half the time, and I'm just on the sidelines.

The literacy rate of that country is <A HREF="http://www.nationsonline.org/oneworld/iraq.htm" REL="nofollow">58%</A><BR/>I doubt there are that many pilots there to beguin with, where did you read that?<BR/><BR/>But I was looking at recent pictures from Iraq, and a lot of building that were intact when I was there are destroyed as a result of the war, a beatiful mosque that was in the middle of the city is now <A HREF="http://www.realcities.com/images/realcities/krwashington/12476/155651510700.jpg" REL="nofollow">gone.</A><BR/>That probably did not make us any more popular there.Josehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12471417659641301420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14038129.post-1145244667238945202006-04-16T22:31:00.000-05:002006-04-16T22:31:00.000-05:00Let's try this again.

When you hear that kind of stuff, what is your first reaction? In your experience and probably more informed opinion, do you think that this is a bunch of lies, exaggerations, or reality?Ms. Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06022938826146209571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14038129.post-1145244525197628932006-04-16T22:28:00.000-05:002006-04-16T22:28:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Ms. Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06022938826146209571noreply@blogger.com
