You, sir, are talking through your hat. ;-) You know nothing of my Aunt's underwear.

Heartfelt words, Donuel. Virtually all people love their country deeply. I know I do. The ones who are against a war love their country just as much as the ones who are for it, but they will always be called traitors, appeasers, and other such words...by those whose love for country is framed in a different sets of ideas and understandings.

I've read books about the Japanese who were working for an end to their war in 1945. They were called traitors, cowards, and worse. Many of them were arrested by the military, and some were executed.

It always happens that way when any country is involved in an unjust war and someone dares to speak up against it.
