>I totally agree. I consider myself a peaceful person, but when my freedom is in peril picking up a gun to fight for it will never be ruled out.

Not disagreeing with you at all, but I just want to make sure that I understand you correctly. You are willing to fight for your freedom, but you do not see IRAQ's building a nuclear arsenal (if there is one) and biological weapons (there definitely is an aresenal of those) a threat to your freedom? Keep in mind that IRAQ has clear intentions of ridding the world of our leaders (definitely) and its citizens (if necessary). Do you truly believe this is all about oil?

There is a REAL problem here in that one cannot disclose information gained while serving in the govt in any capacity to the public without jepardizing our national security, yet that very information is necessary for the public to understand fully the risks involved (for both sides) in order to make an informed decision. I cannot be any clearer than that, comprende?

Yet, the world is slowly but surely moving towards the worldwide war forecast to start in the middle east years ago... Something in the stars perhaps??? I'm afraid that there are simply not enough peace supporters out there to stop what is about to happen. Only Saddam allowing complete access to every corner of his country (and then I doubt it) could prevent what is coming.
