War in Iraq Illegal

[Postmaster]

I'm always open minded and cautious to what I hear.. When the US first invaded Iraq I thought that it was justified and they wouldn't go in if they didn't have to.. However my views have changed dramatically and actually nothing I have read off the net but just common sense and watching Fahrenheit 9 11 to things said by Members of Parliament and protesters. Then it alllll starts to make sense.

You're open minded and cautious about what you hear, yet your thoughts and opinions are influenced by what you read on the internet and watching Fahrenheit 9 11, which after all is a film, and the main point of a film is to make big money at the box office whether they tell the truth or not.

So if you can watch the news "with an open mind and caution", how do you know that others don't or can't? Is it because they have a different view to your own?

Well said!
Everyone has different opinions and views on everything and as I see it I want my opinion to be heard without dismissing the opinions of others.

Opinions are after all what a person thinks and believes and they are free to think what they like and form their own views and opinions. If you think that everyone who is not opposed to the Iraq war does not have an "open mind" or is "cautious" then you are just a shallow person. I have an open mind about everything and consider every possibility, yet I have come to my own opinion on the Iraq war. Are you saying that myself and the many other people who share my opinion on this are wrong because YOU are opposed to it so YOU must be right?

Neither of us are right, and neither of us are wrong. That's the entire point of someones opinion. So I guess on this topic, we will have to agree to disagree.

There’s always a disagreeing argument to any view. No point trying to carry on something if we appose each others views so much, it could go on for ever..

I didn't say the Internet. If you agree to any war, then this just goes to show your state of mind.
