Yes, and so did you when you were a Marine. War is a continuation of politics by other means.

You know, a lot of armchair commandos and windbag politicians love the rhetoric of "war," because it lets them posture instead of actually doing anything useful.

You can simply NOT PURCHASE MUSIC and have the same effect regarding their funding. But that's obviously too subtle for you.

We are going to be violating a lot of Iraqi property rights when we go to war over Saddam's 'inconvenience' to the US political agenda of national security.

If you can't see the difference between sovereign nations fighting a war, and stealing from your fellow Americans, then maybe you should be sent to Heinlein's Coventry.

I am advocating doing something useful and you know that I am not an armchair commando.

Downloading it certainly isn't purchasing it...

Al Qaida is not a sovereign nation, yet we warred against them. These are not my fellow Americans, nor are they yours.
