I hate the war in Iraq too. An old boy from my school died there, shot down accidentally by Americans. >_>;
I was part of the honour guard at his memorial service in school. It was awful, talking to his parents and stuff and standing there at attention in silence and having to march at half pace and everything... I hated it.
I don't disagree with the notion of a regime change, but...the fact that we are now basically stuck there and sinking deeper in quicksand every week just kills me.
Thanks *hugs* He was a friend from before I came to NU. I have a picture from a ski trip we all went on when his mom was still alive, and now that and memories are all I really have left.
War is definitely hell.
Maybe later this week I'll post up some stuff I remember from the time we spent together. Right now I really can't.
