The name of the Author who wrote that article is "peaceseeker" with a name like that you know the truth has probably been stretched due to bias opinions.

War is not fun, nor is it something to be taken lightly. However everyone that signed up for Active Duty knows what risks they are taking. The only thing we can do is stand behind them, and pray that they all come home safely.

I have to agree. The sad truth is you really can't trust anyone you don't know (... and sometimes even then you have to be cautious). Everyone has their own agendas. Although I doubt that the American death toll is up to 9,000, I still doubt it's as low as the government's willing to admit.

Whether you agree with the war or not, you still have to give a certain amount of respect to troops who risk their lives everyday. It's their sacrifice that gives the rest of us the oppurtunity to say, "I don't agree with this war so I'm not going to join."

And as for when enough is enough... shall you never underestimate the power of greed.
