I couldn't agree with you more Battus, it's amazing to me how a lot of people think their version of war is somehow humane because it's high tech and the media makes it look fun and easy on TV. They forget, if it wasn't for them, there wouldn't be a war right now. Like you said, I'm sure these "insurgents" would rather fire cruise missiles into Washington then having to resort to knives.
I also love the new line that everyone fighting against America is from outside of Iraq. That's really the icing on the ignorance cake.

lmfao, unlike how Americans were sold the war. Don't you see the irony in that statement? What's the difference between lying to someone's face to get them to fight a war, and lying on a massive scale using CNN?
Personally the only thing I'd need to know to get me fighting in this situation is, "there's another country bombing your country, they've been here for almost two years and they're still in charge, and still killing innocent people". I don't see what lies these so called evil "insurgents" would have to tell people.
