Resting in Pieces vs. Living In Peace

Almost sixty percent of Americans (which is really 100% of Americans) believe the Iraq War was the right thing to do.

I'd rather live in a strong peace than die in a weak one. There's not even a contest there. Peace comes through strength. The only peace the weak get is that which they rest in.

I have a question to ask the 35% of "Americans" who believe it was wrong: if war is not the answer, what is? Do we just hide in bomb shelters until we've lost everything and pieces of the American dream are scattered across the bomb-scarred plain, until even the cockroaches are gone?

Or do we get off our lazy, illogical, scared, weak, weenie butts and do something?

According to 58% of Americans, that is indeed what we do.
