"A poet's work is to name the unnameable; to point at frauds; to take sides; start arguments; shape the world and stop it from going to sleep." - Salman Rushdie

Wanting our troops to continue to live, to be safe is not un-patriotic - I think it's just the opposite. Our troops deserve a time frame - a time they can look forward to resuming their lives. They also deserve to be adequately equipped to defend themselves while they are waiting for that time to come.
I had trouble viewing these, but I can guess the content.
War cannot be considered in absolutes, i.e., this nonsense about if you're against the war, you're against the troops. In fact, I think that if you're against the war, it means you want to bring the troops home....and save their lives!!!
Thank you Tara for sharing these clips.
The message that you can support the troops and be against the war is a difficult concept for many to understand.
I am against WAR.
I am against the war-
I do not think anyone is right.
I feel for both sides, for all of us. We are not any different are we?
Peace.
May everyone,
on both sides,
be safe
know peace
feel loved
let down their swords
and forgive.
