>>>It was not my intention to do so and I don't understand why it happened. Don't you think we should stop once in a while and realize these are real people getting killed over there?

>>We all know these are brave men and women that are making the ultimate sacrifice. We all grieve for everyone of them and their family.

>>But to the military it can't fight a war, this war or any other war, while agonizing over every death. Very tragic but true. We can only hope and pray the war comes to an end soon.

>No, we can't agonize over every death. What we owe all soldiers is to send them into war only when absolutely necessary. IMO this invasion and war were not necessary at all.
You're preaching to the choir Mike.
