Perhaps it's not my place to comment on this issue, but I've read this topic yesterday and came to talk about it with my grandfather early this morning. For years he has been against any kind of war, after surviving WW2 as a member of the national resistance against the Nazi's. See, I've never seen a war or can even grasp what its like to live through one. Sure, I can imagine it's not a pleasant experience and a situation best avoided. For that reason I turn to my grandfather to ask his opinion, I refuse to simply stick to what's being said about it on the news and by people who are probably politically motivated to say either so or so.
Basically, I asked him why he did fight back against the nazi's. His answer was straight and simple: Because they had no right to be here, nor have the moral standing to
rule over anyone at all, including Germany itself.
He compared this situation to Iraq, where a murderous regime killed its own people, threatened the region, even the rest of the world. A regime with no moral rights to govern whatsoever or whomever. If in the late 1930ties the Nazi's would have been dealt with firmly, countless millions of lives would not have been cut short.
A war to prevent war.
or the murder of the innocent, or repression, or whatever injustice.
Ok, maybe it would have been better for the world if it had been done through the UN, perhaps there were no Chemical weapons, or a Nuclear program...

Who cares?

Saddam and his gang of thugs are history, in jail, and in serious trouble,
Iraq has a more than average chance to become a democracy, and the Iraqi people are free.

Isn't that what counts?

Afghanistan, good show.
Iraq, working on it..
The rest of them isn't sleeping as well anymore lately...

I'd say, lets put them out of their misery once and for all..

I might be hurting the feelings of many other Europeans,
but I guess you guys are serving the entire free world with the war on terror.

God bless the USA and free men everywhere!
