most of the people of the world have nothing to do with these murderers

Murderers? They are doing what they are ordered to do. Many of them have died also, many of them also do not beleive in what they are in Iraq for.

The loss of human life is a horrible thing and should not be taken lightly for either side. Perhaps there has been more damage caused because the USA stayed and tried to help establish a new government instead of just leaving after toppling the old one?

It's also easy for you or I to call someone bad names from miles away without us always having to be in a heightend state of awareness wondering where the next bomb/sniper shot is coming from.

Many times in real life there is no real clear cut right and wrong. Was it wrong the US went there? Yes. Was it right or wrong they stayed afterwards to try to put together a government? That's not so easily answered. Is it wrong to shoot somebody you think may have an i.e.d and is trying to kill you?

I have no answers. The whole thing twists me up. I just know it's late and it's been a long night at work.

They also could show you how civilians get killed there violently everyday since your government had the fantastic idea to invade this country.

Look, this is not "my" country, and it wasn't "my" government who decided to walk into iraq and there would not have been any madrid-bombings if the spanish would not have gone into iraq.

And there probably would be a couple of thousands more iraquis being alive

Nearly 100,000 more Iraqis have died during the American-led occupation than would have been expected otherwise, a study posted on The Lancet medical journal's website Thursday estimates.

if the tables were turned there jackmazotti, if iraq invaded the states and occupied it with extreme aggression wouldn't you be a little pissed after over 3 years of occupation. not saying snipering is justifed cause it is not, but just what the fuck are we doing there in the first place.

snipering is entirely justified. US troops are torturing, raping and killing Iraqi civilians. 650,000 dead Iraqi civilians since the US attack on Iraq. The Iraqis are entirely justified to kill US soldiers any way they can until they force the US military to leave. It is called self defense.

I have organized or attended somewhere around 100 anti-war protests in the past 4 years. At this point anyone who stops and says they 'support the troops' I ask them how. How do they support the troops? Do they voluteer to work in hospitals to tend their wounds? Do the sign up to fight? Do they work to get those troops home? No, most of the people who say they 'support the troops' don't do shit for them.

And recently on a busy street corner near where I live there was a disabled Iraqi vet with a 'will work for food' sign. I can't tell you how many cars and trucks with yellow support the troops ribbons on them just drove right by.

The way to support the troops is to bring them home.

this has nothing to do with good spin and the war on terror, there is no war on terror. the war on terror is an idea created by the industrial war machine to guarantee a constant state of war so they can fulfill their short term goals of profits.

sniping is the best way to take someone out without easily being detected. very good tactic... all armies do it.

At least Cnn gets interrupted in europe. So that they can air some real news (daliy show)

Thats just irony for ya. "we interrupt this news report to bring you the fake news show that mocks us on a daily basis....."

We're blessed with a ticker that makes some sense too.
When you cut away the celebrity stuff, you're left with at least a small bit of useful info.

It's ok Jack, don't worry yourself about things. CNN are lying to you and so is everyone else. American troops and the Iraqi people have actually built an exceptional friendship out there. US Marines drink tea in the backstreet cafes whilst talking nostalgically with the locals about the Cold War. US Generals can be frequently seen building playgrounds estatically and helping frail old women across roads with deep and emphatic love for their fellow human being. It's not really a 'war' out there, everyones just making new friends.
