Fishu, tell me, are you an armchair peace-nik?

Or would you be willing to go to Bahgdad as a human shield?

There are a few here that you could take with you, too.

Fishu makes some good points... it's easy to be 'pro war' when there aren't any bullets aimed at you.
A lot of this 'support for war' comes as a result of one of the worlds best propoganda machines:  the  media

how many of us Americans have first hand knowledge of any of the 'facts' that caused us to make up our minds?
blind faith in what we see on TV...

that being said, terror attacks are real and need to NOT be ignored.
Complacency is dangerous, but so is not  knowing all the facts.
