Here are some people who have sentiments that I share on this issue:

Ron Silliman:
No message for today. I??m too sick at heart at the impending onset of the war. It really is the end of a United States that was conceived on the basis of some very grand ideas not so far from here 227 years ago, replaced by a thug state committed only to bullying the world into submission. Such an endeavor cannot long endure.

Krissy:
[Quote from CNN]: “At the White House, officials said that just before Bush addressed the nation, he pumped his fist, winked, and said ‘I feel good.’ He then delivered his address, which lasted four minutes.”

[Krissy]: I worry that his reasons for fighting this war aren’t the same ones he told us. I think he may be fighting this war for war’s sake, especially after reading that comment. How can you feel good about this kind of thing?

I just cannot feel good about this war. I will pray for the soldiers over there and I will pray for peace. I just really feel like Bush is telling us it’s to rid Iraq of Hussein because he has the weapons of mass destruction but I feel also like Bush wants a war to bring glory to himself. I mean… there’s another obvious reason for this war that he hasn’t mentioned: the human rights abuses by Iraq. Mike of This Classical Life actually *tells* about this here. [Warning, it is graphic and I chose not to post it on this site for that reason. Well… that and I really didn’t want to be seeing it every time I had to do archives.]

Kyrie eleison. Christe eleison. Dona nobis pacem. Amen.
