104. I am not a pacifist
I hate war, but I think we have to defend ourselves and also others when there is clear danger to the world and ethnic cleansing going on. Neither of those circumstances was true of this Iraq war.
I also would not have protested WWII. I would have been proud of my sons for going. But if they reinstate the draft for this war or the idiotic imaginary "war on terror" my sons are going to Canada if I have to drug them and drag them there myself.
