Hey everyone sorry for not writing in so long I have been busy and have not found anything really worthy of blogging about for a while but now I have something.
I believe that we can learn much about how to live now if we look at history and try to learn from it to not make the same mistake twice.
I also believe we should stay in our current state in Iraq until the country is settled and we can leave in good conscience.
Nobody likes wars. Nobody. However they do unfortunately have to be fought. Theodore Roosevelt knew that and said this: Wars are, of course, as a rule to be avoided; but they are far better than certain kinds of peace. TR
Wars have to be fought which is why it is so aggravating to see the cretins of society creep out of their holes and wave their idiotic peace flags and UN banners (they are obviously unaware that the UN is really, only an orginization to be ridiculed anymore)in protest to the war.
They do this country no favors what so ever. The contempt I hold this people in is acute. They cause this country to break down from the inside and make us a laughing stock before the nations we are fighting. They do the soldiers they want to bring home nothing, infact they most likely endanger them more by showing terrorists that if they can just kill enough soldiers the contemptible doves in this nation will force the government to pull out our troops.
This article is the basis for this post so you should read it to see where I am coming from.
This war is reminiscent of the conflict in Vietnam. We have the traitorous radicals waving their flags and marching in protest, we have a war we are going to have a hard time winning if we cannot risk lives, and we have a conflict we cannot exit without losing all the ground gained.
We never seem to learn from the past. These peace people are abimonable traitors and cretins. They hold this nation and her soldiers in no respect to dishonor them by campaigning against all their efforts. You may think me a little extreme. I think not

Quite extreme! i can hear a million Canadians in protest...Man, they hate what we are doing...but with no solution...
but I agree with you Than, just dont tell my neighbors I said so! Just kidding, they know. Amazing how many Christians too are in favor of justice but are against defending the defenseless...
these are people who have openly said that they would not kill Hitler given the oppurtunity before he killed millions.
I might not kill him...just take out his tongue or send him off like Napolean...
love you,

I like wars... plenty
Hey, your cousin pointed me in the way of your blog. I guess because she was aware I have different opinions to yours! Cool
So your blog is called "In.Not.Of"... Which of the sentiments expressed in your post regarding the American invasion of Iraq are those of Christ and those of the World?
Love and prayers
How can you see Christ in this 'war on Iraq?' You have a President claiming in the majority of speeches that America is 'Zion on a Hill'. Yet then turns around and cripples an entire country with his iron fist of vengeance.
It's not like the US is in Iraq fighting any real war now. They are 'helping control a civil war.' But is it really a civil war? Is a terrorist strapping a bomb to his chest and running into a mosque or a crowded market an act of war? No,it's simply an act of terrorism.
You have a president who is in the country out of false pretenses. There is no civil war in Iraq - there is only terrorism. What difference is Iraq from Rwanda, Kuwait or Darfur in that sense? Yet the US refused to get involved with any of those situations?
So what is fueling Bush? Vengeance? Clearly not Christ-like for a self-proclaiming Christian. Resources? Oil - of course. Most likely.
I'm sorry that I disagree with you buddy...but it just seems that the Religious Right has turned a hypocritical these days...maybe we should see what the Religious Left has in store.
i can see Christ in the Iraq war.
In every troop.
In every child saved from terror.
From the stopping of the WMD's.
In god's bias for the poor and hungry.
For the windows of both sides.
and i can see him in the peace to come.
thank you for your blogging efforts, grasshopper.
it takes a lot to say such things in such great times of trouble.
Remember, even Christ was crusified. We shouls expect no less for our views.
Keep up God's work.
Well done.

what about the civilian casualities? which of course have reached a record high. and of course we can see Christ in the stopping of WMD's WHICH WERE NEVER FOUND! *note sarcasm there*
I do see a bias. We see a few American soldiers killed and we weep and mourn for them for 'doing God's work.'
We bomb a couple of innocent civilians or, as in Afganistan, kill other troops with friendly fire and we just chalk it up as an accident.
If it were any other country coming into the US and doing what we're doing to them we would mark it up as war crimes and people would hang for it.
What gives the US the power of veto in this situation? Certainly God did not annoint the US to be the be all and end all.
