I think you need to take a remedial course in reading comprehension.
You don't seem to be able to follow simple logic. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Maxprop" wrote in message ink.net... "Jonathan Ganz" wrote in message Really? They're not innocent, when they were put in harms way for no good reason? If you're referring to soldiers, the answer is an unequivocal 'no.' Soldiers follow orders; good, bad or otherwise. They are NOT innocents. Would you consider innocent the dupes who wear 30# of C-4 into a crowd and detonate it as instructed by al qaeda operatives? The small children, old people, and women of Iraq weren't innocent victims? I left my complete post (below) for you to re-read and show me where I said that such individuals were NOT innocent civilian victims. Please do that now. Wow, you're quite a humanitarian! But, living in a war zone, a war started for no good reason, hey that's just tough luck. It's extremely myopic to reason that the war was started for "no good reason." The majority of Iraqis are happy to have Saddam gone. Most wish he were dead. That is one good reason. I can give you others, despite the reason for Bush's rush to war not being one of them. Don't forget that John Kerry voted for this war. He must have thought there was a good reason. That said, it is still tragic when innocents are casualties in ANY war, justified or not. Max -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Maxprop" wrote in message ink.net... "Jonathan Ganz" wrote in message Right only approaching 1000 US solders have died and 1000s more have been wounded. It seems to me that it's approaching 9/11. Soldiers are not innocent civilians, Jon. Or were you having difficulty making that distinction? And, I haven't even mentioned other foreign troops or innocent Iraqies. Other foreign troops are not innocent civilians either. As for innocent Iraqis, I'm betting a lot of them weren't *innocent.* As for the truly innocent ones, it is most unfortunate. Living in a war zone isn't healthy for bystanders. I grieve for any innocent civilians killed by terrorism or war. Max |
