I'm wondering if there are any others out there who swing from supporting
this war to opposing it?
Before this started, I was in the camp that wanted the UN to solve this
problem, preferably by using the inspections. That not being the case, I
did not want the US to invade Iraq.
Since we are there, I swing from wanting our military to finish this off and
remove Saddam's regime while we are there to wanting to call a cease fire
before the street fighting in Baghdad begins and more blood is shed.
My favorite source of info (since I only get PBS on tv) is www.cspan.org via
RealPlayer. They have pretty comprehensive coverage which includes media
from many outlets. Plus they have a call in show where our fellow citizens
can spout there support or opposition.
This definately is a complex issue, not black and white at all. So many
arguments are for and against the invasion. It's pretty over-whelming and
frustrating though seeing Mr. Bush simplyfing this so much.
I will be at the peace rally on saturday at 1pm at Guy Wick's Field showing
my support for peace and gathering with others who are opposed to Mr. Bush's
potential future military actions in the middle east. It is our duty as
Americans to prevent the military machine from stirring up even more hatred
towards the US for our aggresive foreign policies.
We deserve to have leaders who are honest, upfront and wage peace. We won't
get them if we stay silent.
Any ways, I'd like to hear from others whose views on our actions in Iraq
right now change like mine do.
Thanks in advance,
Garrett Clevenger
