Elli,
This sentiment permeates the US and the world. We can't fault Bush. He's not the only person making decisions. There are literally hundreds of Generals, and others making cumulative decisions.
Please remember... at the start of the "Iraq" war, there was an 80% favorablilty of it. All I can say is that I am a Desert Storm 1 veteran, and that war is hard.
We all wanted a "quick" and "surgical" war where no one got hurt. Unfortunately, there are people that don't want that including terrorist, and would be dictators in the Middle East. Canadian and American soldiers know that they can DIE doing their job. I DID! I just got lucky. We can't all give up so easily. 9-11 could have easily been the CN tower.
None of us like seeing people killed.. We have to go to them this time, as long as it takes. If not, mark my words the're coming back. And a nuke in Boston would surely affect Canada.
