Statement: Why I Oppose this WarI oppose the use of any person's life, death or "purpose" for political ends. Which is the primary reason I opposed this war from the beginning. I feel a deep moral sense that sending people to potentially die is a decision not to take lightly which I feel we have. I have never served in the military because I don't trust the politicians who are more and more avoiding service themselves but seem more eager to send people off to die. People should only have to die for causes they believe in, not just for causes that the politicians beleive in. I would fight to protect my freedom and family but I would never fight just to serve some "policy goal". War in Iraq, despite the way it was sold is not about life and death, or protecting American freedom. Its a war for strategic military/economic position. That one person should have to die for that is personally repugnant. | |
