NativeOkie,

If you served in the Air Force, surely you think about what's 30,000 feet below? Should your children pay a price for the actions of a president you may not even like? Basic questions about war, but it's reality. Your words, "Swift, Hard and Complete," made me cringe as I thought of what you were actually saying in human terms.

WWII definitely saw civilians massacred in the name of warfare. That makes it right? Can you say "Dresden?"

Russia did not start this. Georgia sent its military into South Ossetia, a disputed territory for almost 20 years now. Over-reaction by Russia and Medvedev/Putin? Yes. But Russia did not start this conflict. So much for an "educated" response.
