yeah... remember you don't have to agree with your government... that's the wonderfull part about being free 
America, Spain, Britain, France, and others... you are allowed to speak your mind like you are doing, and not have to suffer the consequences...

well you do suffer the consequences of your actions, but you won't be put to death for not agreeing with your government

alo_cmr: Don't you have seen the people at the streest SHOUTING NO to war???
Yes, people are allowed to do that here because of democracy. In Iraq such anti government protests would be met with torture and beheadings. How fortunate you are to have free speech.
Taken from an interview screened last night:
Interviewer: What about opposition, is it right to torture and kill them?
Saddam: Yes
Info: Live poll on Sky News (UK) yesterday...
Q: Do you support the Government's action in Iraq?
Yes: 83%
No: 17%
Just the facts...

FB: Alo, shouldn't you be protesting YOUR government. Spain is allied with the US in this matter. At least our government is carrying out the popular will of its people.
Hum, didn't you read the news? The Spain government had to back out. Although it supported the US prior to the war, they decided against helping the US militarely.
And concerning France, Liberty, et al. if you can't understand what I write, I guess I'll blame it on my poor ability to express myself clearly. Cause obviously you did not get what my point was.
Green Arnani: I never felt insulted, don't worry. As a peace activist, I've heard it all and I know that pro military people consider peace as a coward act. I never expected any less.
Anyway, i'm really done with this thread.
War started, so lets just mourn for the American, Bristish, Australian and Iraki victims that the next few days will bring us. Every man's blood is the same colour.

Well, if you agree with war or not, I don't think it will matter at this point. It's obvious that the war will happen. (Since they have already started to bomb) We should be more concerned now over how many lives will be lost and how fast we can help Iraq get back on their feet.

Paxx, as a pro military person, I don't consider peace as a cowardly act. If allelse fails and peace cannot be obtained without war, then if a person doesn't want to fight to protect ones way of like or country then I would consider that an act of cowardice.

WOM, I see that as a personal attack on Paxx.
Please quit.
He already stated that he would not fight as a point of principle, not because of cowardice.
People, as stated before- attack the message, not the messenger.
Paxx has a noble stance, and he is sticking to his convictions. How is that being a coward? If he was a coward, he wouldn't be on here stating his views.
BTW, I don't *totally* agree with Paxx, but that doesn't mean that I can't respect his views and try to learn from them.

I think you need to re-read it then KarmaGirl. That was not an attack. It was a responce to paxx's statement about pro-military.

The time for protests and opinions is over. Support your country. Support your armed forces - they need to know you are with them.

WOM, I apologize, then. It was more the statement of "if a person doesn't want to fight to protect ones way of like or country then I would consider that an act of cowardice" that I was referring to. Paxx has stated that he would leave the country or put his gun down if he was forced to fight. Your statement looks like you are calling him a coward because of that.

Paxx: Spanish Gov. isn't sending troops but it supports the US. Don't kid yourself.
Alo is spending all this energy worrying about the US. Apparently their democracy over there in Spain has some serious problems.
Our domacracy is working quite well - we want military action and our government is providing it.

I am pro military being that I'm in the military but I'm not pro war for no reason of it, but there are times when it is necessary.
I'm just praying for a few buddies I have over there right now because of the attempted attack that Iraq already has tried doing by firing off some al samud missiles into the Marine camp in Kuwait.

Frogboy, well Spain's government still listens a bit more to its people than the British government or the Australian government, that's for sure.
And in Canada, our government also listens to its people. This time anyway.

There are many people here who know what war is like. Does that mean you avoid war at all costs to the point where your life is in jeaperdy? Your family? Your town? The funny thing is that by avoiding it to the extreme whould actually bring the war on your door step anyway.
Saddam (and others) would rule there region happly. Control and threaten other countries until... well, until they are at your door step.
As much as I want to protest how the administration has screwed up this thing and how I do not want war, I find that no one who is against the war like me to be able to answer the questions I posed earlier.
hmmmm.....
