Forty-five percent of Iraqi citizens think it is morally okay to attack American troops.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Our own State Department polls say that 80 percent of Iraqis view the United States as an unpopular occupier.
Every soldier thinks something of the moral aspects of what he is doing. But all war is immoral and if you let that bother you, you're not a good soldier.
Iraq is just a symbol of the attitude of western democracies to the rest of the world.
America has shown its evil intentions, and the proud Iraqi people cannot accept it. They must defend their rights by any means they see fit.
We prefer that the leaders of the Iraqi armed forces do the honorable thing; stop fighting for a regime that does not deserve your loyalty.
If civilians are killed in an attack on a military installation, it is certainly regrettable, but I will not morally blame the I.R.A. for it.
I think the Iraq War is not particularly tailored to American interests.
Nobody's more mindful of the sacrifices of our troops than those of us that command them.
We as Americans believe it's OK to kill people. We believe it's OK to invade a country that had nothing to do with 9/11. We think it's OK to invade a country where we think Osama Bin Laden is and he's in the other country. So we just go in and we just kill. And we have the death penalty; we sanction it.
However one feels about the war in Iraq, realize that our troops deserve our support 100 percent.
