I was in the Persian gulf for 6 months on an aircraft carrier during operation Iraqi freedom (still ongoing) and I watched as we launched F-14's and F18 loaded with 8 tons of bombs 23 hours a day for over 100 days. Your views on war change and I tend to agree with the general question: Why and was it worth it. The only answer I can honestly give is only time will tell. I choose not to get into the politics of situations about matters in which I have no immediate control over, it saves me the stress of coming to the realization that I can't change the outcome or mold it to my own ideals. So, my answer remains in question so long as we never receive any truthful validation, for how can you make a decision based off assumptions and pieces of information they choose for the media to envelope? I can't justify the ethics so I wont.
