No matter what you think of how it was done, carried out etc., the reasoning for the conflict was debated, discussed and voted upon. IMO it was by a government that had just been attacked for the first time on our soil and lost 3,000 of our citizens (and could have easily been 30,000). A country that was afraid that every bridge, mall, letter was going to contain death from terrorism. Those people who put their lives on the line to keep this country and your family safe did it because they thought it the best option to secure this country. And guess what, history (last 8 years) says that they were right.

Yay, Patriot Act and all that other Gestapo crap! At least we theoretically have a little "freedom" halfway around the world, don't we?"
