war in iraq Options

do you support it or no?

I don't think I can make up a decision on that unless I was actually faced with it.

So you're just going to sit there and wait for another September 11th to happen, this time closer to home. Maybe it doesn't have to happen to your children, but maybe to your loved ones.

I don't think this war in Iraq has much to do with freedom, so if it was this war, I would never fight in it.

Then I guess it all comes down to point of view, because I feel that we're fighting for freedom, the freedom to live the American way of life. I felt that it was threaten by people who are only envious of what this country has become.

My children are probably a million times more likely to get killed in a road accident, drug abuse or homicide by a crazy man living in the neighbourhood than be killed by a terrorist attack.

I agree, but that doesn't mean I won't be wary of other threats as well.

"Would my children suffer more from losing their father to a war or from the fear that they might be involved in a terrorist attack?" I don't think it's as easy a decision that you've made it out to be.

Pfft, if their father is fighting for what he believes in, then he has honor. He knows the risks, but he's still fighting for his country and for his family. That's the making of a hero. I'd be proud to have a father like that.
