So when people attack America, people are attacking Americans' idealism and benevolence. It comes across as a personal attack, because your typical American has no imperialistic aspirations. We didn't send boys to die in Vietnam, Korea, WWI, II, for oil. We did it out of genuine desire to enable others to live free.

There are dozen of dictators in the world. Will you attack all of them one by one?
Iraq doesn't have any nuclear weapons or anything big enough to attack the USA. Inspectors proved that and were working on disarming... slowly but there was NO reason to stop everything and attack now.
ALL countries said (including France, Russia, China): War is the extreme solution. They are not against war. They are against stupid wars.
Bush administration wanted to go to war from the first day. They already had their personal reasons and did not give a fuck about other countries or citizens. It was all about getting "support" to start a war.
On US citizens: I feel sad for the people ( 60% ) that were against the war without a worldwide support, then only ( 25% ) after. They think that being Anti-War is Anti-American... what a bunch of brainwashed fags.
