This isn't really a thread about war and those who wage war. It's about America, and Iraq...and your working our what ever you are working out. Unless you want to talk about Sudan, or perhaps the Philippines, or maybe Chechnya...there are lots of places where war, and those who wage war are. You chose to talk about America and Iraq. Then again, it does get more news play then the Chechn repels blowing up a truckload of Russian soldiers.

No, we should not feel any more or less compassion for the Iraqi soldier or the American soldier...or for the Iraqi insurgent, or the foreign national in Iraq working as a soldier for the insurgency. All are doing what they believe is right, today.
