I agree with Librasoul. I do not believe in this war, I do not agree with the "reasons" behind it and I refuse to not state my views because some people view it as unpatriotic. However, I do hope the men and women who have to fight are as safe as possible.
Also, at many war protests the signs say things like "Don't risk the lives of our military" "We support our troops but not our commander in chief" etc. I think the military personel see that and do understand that we are simply stating our opinions freely in a democratic society that they, and many before them, have helped to keep free.
I support, with prayer and hopes for a safe journey home, the men and women of the armed forces. Until the Gulf War my family had a family member participate in every war the U.S has ever been a part of - that includes the Revolutionary! But I do not, and will not out of fear of being 'unpatritoic', support President Bush's decision to begin this war.
