Reply #40: I've been against this War since long before most people even thought...

...we were going to War in Iraq.

I was one of the few people who figured out this war was coming and was going to be sold for totally bogus reasons in early September, 2002 when I heard a BBC program that was asking, "Why are they talking so much about Iraq now?" It took me a few days, but I soon figured out it was for Oil, which is why we when to war in Iraq.

I was never really much of a fan of the Afghanistan War either, but I can't say that I openly opposed it either.

As a Buddhist, I was a little bit angry when the Taleban destroyed the Bamiyan Buddhas but, as I'm sure you know, most buddhists are absolutely anti-war.
