Your views on the war

my husband went over for the first time in Aug and will be back some time early next year.... the whole deployment thing just plain sucks

Hey! My fiancee (a Marine) has been over twice. He's in the states right now, but I completely know what you're talking about. It's tough. But the best thing that helped me... stop thinking about it. That's what I did. I just concentrated on the love of my life coming home safe and my love for him.. and it was so much better. But that's just what helped me. Everyone's different.

I agree that things are only getting worse, which means the longer our troops are there, things will probably get worse not better. I don't think they even want us there anymore. What good are we doing. I think our troops needed to be home a long time ago.

I am so sorry they feel that way all I can say is I will support our troops

in my opinion all canadians should come home,russia was there for years and it never helped just killed alot of soldiers take the innocent women and children out then let them destroy each other

My husband has been back and forth for the past 4 yrs, We have a 2 yr old boy and he is gone again soon to return but only to leave again in May'07. I don't know about anyone else, but he signed up knowing what might happen and I married him knowing what could happen. These men and women are not stupid, they are brave and smart and beautiful. Praise all of them whether or not they believe in what they are doing.
