My husband served in Bosnia during the heat of the battle, if he had become a causualty I would not of blamed the government. Would it be fair to the people of Iraq to just abandon them now? Terrorism is real and Canada is at risk also, I do not believe these far fetched ideas that the US is doing this for greed. If we can put a man on the moon why can't someone design an alternate fuel source.

I just saw your post today - days after you wrote it - but I wanted to thank you for your husband's service to his country.
Military families often seen and appreciate things others don't and I am sure you went through the whole list of questions: "Why us?" and "Why should we take this on?"
And yet you did it, you and your husband, regardless. For this sacrifice you made I thank you humbly and sincerely.
When there are men and women on the ground armed with weaponry....it is far too late to ask questions. Save it for when they are all back home safely. Then we can see where we are wrong. Not right now.
