Subject: RE: BS: Do u think the a war on Iraq is legit?
Mark- I did think about it. And I remain in favor of removing Saddam Hussein and his regime. I will not say that because we haven't removed the other "friendly" dictators that we should not remove Hussein. That's a ridiculous non-sequitor.
Do you think that my support of a military campaign is a "feel good solution"? (your words) You can't really think that I feel GOOD about people potentially going to their deaths, can you? I have done a great deal of research into the Iraq situation (among others) and have come to an informed conclusion. That you disagree with it is obvious. But please do not assume that I came to this decision lightly.

Bobert, you said- "If Beccy, Old Guy, et al, will take the time to read this link I think they will no other choice but to do some serious rethinking."
You begin to offend me with your condescension. It seems you think that if I just read the same things you read that I will automatically shift my opinion to be homogenous with yours. Please. You and I both know diversity is the human condition. I read that article that Mark sent the link to and came from it with a renewed support for our potential involvement in Iraq.
