I support our troops. I realize that they are doing their job, what they were ordered to do. And while some of them believe that they are fighting for the greater cause, are making a difference, not all of them do.
It is not their fault that they were ordered into another country to fight a war on false intelligence. Heck, even if the intelligence was true it still isn't their fault.
And anyone who knows me knows I do not support this war.
