PLEASE DONT JUMP ON THIS AND TRY TO TURN IT INTO ANOTHER OTHER THAN A THOUGHT FROM ME....OK?

it seems that a war is going to happen in the next few day...i for one have been in the situation that a few thousand young men are in now....that is sitting and wondering if they are going to be able to go home at some point.

lets not fight and argue if this is right or worng at this time , lets sit back and in our own way think of those young men doing there jobs....fuling planes, cooking meals for the brothers in arm, giving blood for others in need.

right or wrong it is going to happen and i feel for the men that are in the sand wondering if they are ever going to see that place they call home agin.

i wish you peace

And it's THIS man who's calling for all the bloodshedding too...: http://politicalhumor.about.com/library/blbushisms.htm


Sorry that we haven't been talking lately. It's my fault, I was over-sensitive to something you said, I know you didn't mean any harm... I'm sorry, and I apologize. Life's really too short to go around and be irritated and upset with one another, please tell me we're cool?

Without wishing to detract from the poignance of what Timmer has written let me add that there are others who should be in our thoughts as well as the soldiers: the population of Iraq; and also let's not forget "innocent bystanders" who might get involved. (Israelis have been instructed that now is the time to create a sealed room and to shake the dust off their gas masks.)

Wow, most of my history class was gone today due to a model UN confrence somewhere else so the remander of us spent the period discussing the war. I have come to realize it's even scarier then i thought. Like we were discussing exactly which countries have nuclear bombs and which countries Bush has been annoying, why hes ignoring the UN and so on for 40 minutes. When we were done I was just like wow....
So everyone pray (to whatever you believe in) that we don't go to war, or if we do it doenst last long and noone is injured. (AHHH the ideas of a dreamer Razz )
Peace

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/2862325.stm reflects the UK Parliament's vote tonight.

I suppose, now, we must simply hope for a speedy outcome wiuth minimal losses on either side.

I just feel an overwhelming sadness and find it impossible to sort this all out.

Thank you Brian for sending me the song. His words are the way I feel.

God bless and keep us all, especially those of you in harm's way.
