Do you you support the war? By sex and age this time.

Simple survey. There are plenty of other thread in which to expound. Let’s keep this one simple.

1 Do you support the war?

2 Your sex?

3 Your age?

  1. No
  2. Female
  3. 24
  1. No, I don’t support the war.
    I do support the troops, as they have no choice in the matter.

  2. Female

  3. 43

Ok - my thread a I should post

1 I did initially, but I was wrong

2 34

3 male

There is no simple answer. Afghanistan, yes. Iraq, I didn’t support the invasion, but I don’t believe that we can simply pull out now.

Male, retired military.

  1. Nope.
  2. Female.
  1. Too complex for a yes/no. Which war? Afghanistan: regretfully, yes. Iraq: no fucking way. Though I agree a pullout now would be a disaster.

  2. Male.

  3. 39

  1. Absolutely not.
  2. Female.
  1. To borrow from A.R. Cane, who articulated it better than I, “Iraq, I didn’t support the invasion, but I don’t believe that we can simply pull out now.” (I didn’t support Afganistan, though, and I want out of Iraq as soon as possible without creating a bigger disaster.)

  2. Female.

1 : Afghanistan yes, Iraq no. We should bring back our weapons and equipment, and leave the disarmed soldiers behind for the Iraqis to deal with as they see fit. After all, if they love us for “liberating” them so much, surely the’ll just send the soldiers home.

2 : Male

3 : 37

  1. Yes, I do because I believe, deep down in my naive way, that the government knows better than we do.
    2)Male
    3)30 years old

A little messed up point of view, no? I don’t think this was the intention of the OP. Or was it just plain sarcasm?

I do support the troops and it pains me that they have to be over there at all, which is mainly why I don’t support it. That and the cost, and the loss of innocent lives.

A little; other people were commenting on what should be done, so I commented. Realistically, as little sympathy as I have for the soldiers I’d just bring them home. Given the constant rhetoric from the pro war types, I find my earlier idea a nice fantasy. I’m always hearing claims that the vast majority of Iraqis just love us; if that were true they would send the soldiers home.

  1. No, I haven’t supported the war in Iraq from the beginning because I suspected it would wind up the way it has. It figures this would be one of the few times I’m right when I predict world events. :rolleyes: I did support the war in Afghanistan.
