I know this is slightly off the original topic here, but honestly, I'm not sure how I feel about that. Anyway, just wanted to comment on MIC's point above. I'm in that group - support the troops but not the war. I think the two are in fact, mutually exclusive. I have mixed feelings about the war itself, but generally leaning towards against it. However, I would never ever ever ever criticize the soldiers for doing what they do (excluding war crimes). They are not the ones that made the decision to go to Iraq...all they did was make the decision, by enlisting, to fight for and defend our country with their lives. Nothing but respect for the fighting man/woman, regardless of the leadership.
