Here we go...

I just saw a message across the bottom of my TV screen saying that American troops have already gone into Iraq and started to capture soldiers.

Many people in and out of FIRST have friends and/or family in Iraq getting ready to fight a war. I would like to know what people are feeling about the conflict and its affect on Americans. I don't want this to turn into an argument. Please just state how you feel.

I have a strong feeling about whether we should go to war or not, but I don't want to start off this thread with a one-sided perspective. I will post later what I feel.

We've learned from the past few war threads that this probably isn't the best place to discuss politics & war. I know its a big part of our lives now, but no matter how it starts -- the threads always end up a big name calling, finger pointing, yelling mess.

Sorry .
