I don't know what to write, it's on one hand shocking and on the other hand common knowledge about how wars work.

The families are of course sad that her family members died. But you have to realize that it was the soldier's own decision to take a weapon and invade another country. They knew what they did, they took the weapons, they went there as soldiers. Not as unarmed men.

What do you expect? A peaceful encounter of other people saying "Oh you got a weapon, you are our god now and we never do harm against you, because you are from US" - or what?

This whole war discussions are totally absurd and on the level of WW2 where everybody claims that Japan and Germany were the bad guys.

Of course, Hitler and the Nazi regime was insane with their dumb racist ideology and I don't want to better that anyhow. But people paid their price and realized war is bad against each other (founding of Europe, EU etc.).

The war itself is in no way different from what the US does nowadays. It's only because of resources. Whoever gets resources, wins economy. And that should be a hint that economy itself is not properly solved enough to prevent such things.

Anyone ever asked if the people themselves wanted to be freed or if there's something called discussion and peaceful opportunity? Before invading the country? Did they make a vote? No. Did they ask 5 representatives? Yes. Is 5 people representative for a whole fucking country? No. Were the 5 representatives themselves already banned several times from the regime and were not qualified to lead a country after the coup? Yes.

Ask yourselves, what would you do if China decides to invade the US and force you to have a different regime form. I mean, they are equally thinking communism is the right thing just as you do for democracy.

The proofs for a functioning regime are equally legit, so there's no way of an objective discussion. The only objective thing to reflect is that you have no right to enforce your own idea to other people, because then you take their freedoms of thinking. And that's exactly what the US did in Iraq.
