I lived in Nigeria in 1967, during the civil war. I carried the dead bodies of my friends. The federal troops--our "liberators--"were pulling people who were suspected of being rebels out of their homes. They were lined up and killed. A friend of mine tried to shield his father from the soldiers, and he was shot dead. He was fourteen years old. Every war has innocent victims, That's why I believe violence should only be a last resort. President Bush entered this war before he did everything he could to bring about a peaceful solution. When he chose violence over diplomacy, we lost our integrity. Our bombs and bullets are not winning Iraqis' hearts and minds.
