I do not agree with the mass bombings of populated areas to target a few, unfortunately, In ww2, the germans bombed innocent civilians trying to get to the factories making the weapons, i`m afraid the bombing was rather indiscriminate to say the least.
The allied forces went this country to help the innocents. Of course there will be some casualties. I think with the disposal of Saddam, we all have saved more lives and these people are now able to breathe freely.
War is never a good thing but until governments are able to sit down around a table and agree things, they are inevitable. |
I would like to share your optimism, sadly experience tells me different.
But just lets not have the hypocrisy that we currently have.
If we are all sat debating that it is all roses there this time next year then something has worked, lets do away with the hypocrisy this government show.

The only really good thing to come out of a war is the end.
Pretty much everything between the begining and the end is bad or neutral.

I can follow your logic to an extent
Does nothing to address the hypocrisy though does it?
