It is quite possible to support the troops and understand and feel for the sacrifice they are making, yet oppose the war in which they are fighting. It's how I feel about the Iraq invasion. Soldiers may fight the wars, but they don't start them. That's done by politicians, and their reasons for starting them may be less than sterling or moral. That's how I feel about the Iraq War.
