I disagree strongly that "war is inhuman". Rather, I think 'war' is inherint within the human race. I don't think that war is where you fight without really knowing why.

The fighting spirit is inherent of the human race, fighting to
stay alive first, to be the best after, then to dominate the
weaks.

But war is not a fight where the goals are in front of you,
where you can hit your enemy and come back home with
a torn wrist.

War is all a nation with all its people blinded by vast mediatic
lies hating without having ever met them another nation,
war is when a soldier becomes nothing more than a dot on
a battle fields, even if he's been a talented artist in real life,
or a loving daddy, or the two . war is when you kill people
that you could have loved in other circumstances. That is where
war is where you fight without knowing why.[/quote]

I think that in some instances in the history of the humans, this has been the case where militaries may have been fighting for unjust causes, perhaps not even knowing the real reason behind the war. But I think it's very clear in this day and age exactly why we, the allies of a peaceful global community, are declaring war. There is a threat that has made itself known and threatened the free people - both Iraq's own citizens and those in other countries such as threats to America. This is a very real concern. After months of trying the peaceful route, war really has become a last resort of sorts.

and it makes me really sad, but when it comes to choosing
a side, i'm with G Bush, because i'm not as dumb as chirac,
but i'm very sad.

My daughter just told me while we were eating :
"why do thet hurt people ? it's stupid to hurt people.
If i was there i'd tell them that hurting people makes
them sad." lea

And while I don't know much about the cold war, I'm don't really agree that it was a "peacefull time" when literally millions of people lived in fear every day that they would be bombed. I couldn't imagine the stress of growing up and learning to "duck and cover" in school. But again, this isn't my strong subject, just a random personal opinion.

yes, but however stressfull environement it was, it was
peacefull and science made a great leap during that time
as it did during world wars.

*passes a joint for p0s3id0n in respect for differences of opinion*

i knew we had more in common than economical interests
