By that I mean, I would feel the same way even if had announced that I was
completely against the war.

The people who go have a choice, but it is not that sensible to expect that they
won't just go and do it.  The president is elected, we take our chances.  The
soldiers go where they are pointed and do the best they can to represent their
country.

I have visited the Arab and Muslim worlds.  I have accepted hospitality there
and made some friends.

I can state truthfully that every casualty of this war affects me, no matter
what side they are on, civilian or military.  I sincerely hope that there are
very few.
