war in Iraq
I believe that we are fighting for a good cause. I do have many friends who are fighting and who have fought, one who was sent home because he and his unit were victims of a car bomb. Many lives will be lost to this war, many have...

What do you think about the war in Iraq?
Since the war in Iraq began more than four years ago, American public opinion has changed from overwhelming support to dissatisfaction. But polls and numbers cannot describe the feelings of a mother whose child is shot at daily, or a...

What I think of the war in Iraq
As a mother whose son is serving in Iraq at this moment, I really doubt that all the facts are revealed whether for the right or the wrong. I continue to believe daily my son is there for the good. I trust in the one who is in control...

What I think... and what I know are two different things.
Let's see... the news is pretty censored, the president lies to us, and people are dying like crazy.  It's certainly hard to believe that our being there is doing any good or that we are there for the reasons we've been told. ...

War in Iraq
Bakersfield.com asked what we thought about the war. At one time I did support this war. But the longer this goes on, I have come to realize that it has nothing to do with the 9/11 plane hijackings.  IT has more to do with Bush...

I support our troops and their purpose!
I never post on here but for once would like to add a small taste of my opinion.  Although I know as soon as it is posted I will be told how wrong my opinion is.  I for one support our troops to the fullest extent.  I have...

We are fighting the right war!
We are in a fight for our lives and our civilization against Islamic Fundamentalists.  Our President Bush is fighting the right war in Iraq.  Thank God for the brave men and women in our armed forces who are willing to...

The War in Iraq
Just think, if Saddam was so bad, now as Bush n company try to pull sway there, more people have died in the last year than in all the years that Saddam was in power so who's the greater evil?, We seem to be worse! ...

NO MORE WAR
DEAR PRESIDENT BUSH: HAVE A HEART and please do not send any more troops to Iraq or Afghanistan. Bring all U.S. troops home NOW.

The War on Iraq; Remembering Vietnam
I try not to think about the war in Iraq.  I have a nephew in Iraq now.  This is his second deployment.  I had hoped the war would end before he had to go back.  Obviously it didn't, and if history...

Military solution invites violence
Just as many in our nation felt fearful and angry after the 9-11 attacks on our soil, surely we can understand how the Islamic world now feels angry and fearful of the U.S. - due to our military presence in Iraq.  This war has had...

What do i think of the war in Iraq.
I think we need to win the war in Iraq as quickly as possible by whatever means necessary. The more time we use the more casualties for both sides. When Hitler became a threat what did the US do? After the Japanese invaded American...

Can anyone answer this question for me
What do I think about the war in Iraq? I have got one question for that. I wonder if President Bush has any family members fighting in Iraq?  I doubt it.........

Freedom isn't free
What do I think of the war in Iraq? I think it is a necessity. It is necessary to preserve the freedoms we as Americans have taken for granted for so long. Many seem to have forgotten the events of 9/11/01. To prevent further attacks on...

When will it be over?
With so many Americans dying most likely everyday in Iraq, the question comes to mind: "What are our people still doing over there?" It is obvious that Americans are not wanted over there, and our help is not wanted by a great...

I Support our U.S. Troops
I support the U.S. Troops 100%, but not the Bush Administration, which is nothing but Lies and Corruption. We shouldn't be in Iraq nor Afghanistan at all. So that is my answer to that principle question, definitely not. My...

Spinning the lure......taking the bait?
As an avid fisherman at one time in my life, I quickly learned that if you want to catch a fish.......  you must give it what it wants.  Whether the bait is real or not doesn't matter as long as you can convince...

Why are we still There??
I think that the US being in this war is stupid. We went over there to help Iraq. We helped them so lets' get out and get our troops home. Bush is only in this war to look superior to everyone else. I think that Bush is wrong for keeping...

Democracy
I don't understand why we are at war. I guess it is my lack of formal education. We are being told that we are trying to establish a government of democracy in Iraq. We want the Iraqi people to have a say by vote in there government and...

If not over there, they would be fighting on our own soil
We have two boys in the Marines. PFC Hunter McAtee is stationed in Bangor, WA, in security detail and his twin brother PFC Carson McAtee is currently in the reserve unit 3rd ANGLICO but has recently volunteered to go active. He will...

What do I think of the war in Iraq?
I think that someone has lost sight of the mission, and I guarantee you that person is not a soldier! Our troops have to be sensitive to the religious beliefs of the Iraqi people while in Baghdad, by using metal detectors...

The war in Iraq
I pray and worry every day about the war in Iraq. I have a daughter in the Air Force and a son and grandson in the Army. My question is: How much longer will I have to keep this up. K. Fidler

War is Hell
This war is in a no win situation, going no where quick!  Too many of our young men and women are  coming home without limbs and  brain injuries, not to mention the huge death toll thus far!  One death was one too...

War in Iraq
As parents of a son who is currently serving his second tour in Iraq, this issue is so personal to us. We need to throw out the political agendas that everyone gets wrapped up in and understand that these men and women are fighting for...

What I think of the War in Iraq
This war is a Pandora's Box that was opened by the most inept Executive Branch of our government.  We have needlessly lost well over 3600 lives of our young men and women, and seriously wounded thousands more.  Billions of...

The War in Iraq
Both my daughter and her husband are serving in Iraq.  She is in Baghdad, in the green zone, and he is a few miles north of the city.   While I support the troops, and their brave efforts, I do not think we should be...

The Other Cost of the War
  I lay in bed, again unable to go to sleep, flicking through the TV channels hoping for something to put me to sleep. Instead, I see such crud on every channel, all of it leading me to wonder – why are we fighting a war...
