There are very few incidents of American soldiers deliberately harming civillians when compared to humanitarian operations (i.e.- restoring power, repairing roads, rebuilding schools, etc.). Moreever, the US goverment has NOT sanctioned the deliberate targeting of civillians, unlike those representing Al-Quada who love to kill as many children as possible. And sweetguy, I again have to dissent with you. Most American soldiers support the war. In fact, re-enlistment for the US Marines- who have borne the brunt of hundreds of casulties- have skyrocketed. We've all seen the picture of troops makeing a sign to mock John Kerry and some of us may remember the images of troops flicking of Nanci Peloesi when she came to call. Theese are two of the strongest anti-war Congress members. The outcry of troops against the war is far less than thoose supporting it.

Before someone argues that I've never even meet a soldier, consider this. I have 2 cousins in Iraq and numerous freinds in all branches of the Military. All of them fully support the war, in fact several freinds of mine joined the Marines in full knowledge that they could be shipped over there at any time.
