I think wars are idiotic. They involve ignoring the fact that other people are human beings just like you and reducing them to ‘enemies.’ I don’t support a war with Afghanistan, but I do support hunting down those terrorists who bombed the World Trade Center. I saw on a news program that the Afghanistan people are tired of war. I would be too if I were in their situation. The terrorists are ruining it for everybody. So I’m not in favor of a war, and I bet a lot of people wouldn’t be if they just thought about it. But I also know that some Americans have a fascination with war, thinking it is all grand and something that ‘must be done.’ Some people I know watch bloody movies and play vicious video games. When I asked my mother how she would feel if she had to go to war and risk her life, she conveniently said it is a woman’s job to be at home taking care of the children. So in other words, it’s OK to send someone else to war, but not yourself. I just wish there were more communication and understanding, not only with other countries but with people living together in the same country.
