The writer does make a good point; when we are rightly worrying about the loss of "innocent" life, it is good to remember that our soldiers qualify as fully innocent and worthy of being defended and mourned. We are the agrieved party, and we are the liberators. We are the good guys.

I agree with you.
There are so many "innocent" lives that get caught in war.
Sometimes a leader has to go ahead, even knowing that "innocents" will be lost, in order to prevent more from being lost later.
We ARE the good guys, and a leader (Dubya) has to make these difficult decisions.

If the decisions were easy, Liberals could make them.
