Dunno if you remember me from way back when we wrote RK fics, but I just realized today that I hadn't seen you much on LJ as of late. Finally found where you've gone. :)
Please add me as a friend. I loved your entries and stories before, and I'd like to continue being friends with you. <3
Short Version: The war is right and we should be there.
The long version could be a paper.
In my honest opinion it was going to happen sooner or later - we didn't finish up in the first Gulf War and yes we're now bogged down in it and it will take a while to extract ourselves but Saddam NEEDED to be taken out of power. The Bush Administration did a lot of mishandling but it's a war that was coming sooner or later.
And I personally hate how it's popular to be Anti-Iraq War in the Media. Boyfriend spent 3 years there (3 tours of duty) and how some people treated him when he got back just infuriated me.
You can be Anti-War, think we're wrong to be involved. But leave the servicemen and women alone. Respect them even if you don't respect what they are doing.

With my studies and fields of interest though as a Political Science Major I mostly focus on Israel and Iraq.

What are your opinions regarding Iraq, mind my asking?
