Just my 2d worth I don't know anyone ( literally ) who thought we should go to war. Most people seem to think the war is to do with oil. I don't think there is any oil in Ethiopia. War turns people into animals. The only point of living is to survive another day. I used to work with a WW2 veteran who shot and killed two japanese prisoners - and then ate their food rations. If we do not stop the tide of Islamic Fundamentalism then in your lifetime it may well be against the law to be a Christian. Generally the population of middle eastern countries seems to be extremely excitable and unstable. Which means that whatever we do they will think we are wrong. We must support our servicemen and women to the hilt while we are in Iraq. However that support should be conditional on not allowing the bullying elements in our services to be allowed to corrupt their colleagues efforts towards peace. I honestly believe that this government appears to think that it is above English and International law and has brought disgrace to our countrys name throughout the world.
