這幾天愈來愈覺得這場戰爭打得有點莫名其妙
真是沒事找事做啊
把這種精力和金錢拿來振興美國國內經濟不是很好嗎?!
幹麻拿來騷擾別人呢?!
伊拉克固然不夠民主 海珊或許真的很壞...
但我總覺得這種事等伊拉克自己國內的人民覺醒
自己解決比較恰當
美國或許可以暗助革命
但這樣明目張膽地出兵實在是太過分啦
不過一些過於偏激的反戰言論其實我也不大喜歡
特別是過於簡略地把美國貼上"evil"的標籤
總覺得不大公平
美國反戰的人其實挺多的
至於那些不反戰或支持戰爭的人
並不全然是像小布希之流的石油既得利益者或是富有幼稚牛仔精神的莽夫
他們支持戰爭其實有其他原因:
春假去南卡渡假時聽到一個地方性的廣播電台的節目
南方普遍來說比較保守
所以那是我第一次, 也是到目前為止唯一一次聽到支持出兵的言論
主持人還放了首歌: Have You Forgotten by Darryl Worley
(Written by Darryl Worley and Wynn Varble )
仔細看歌詞其實就可以理解為何有些人贊成出兵
那是源于911的恐懼和憤怒 再加上相信"伊拉克跟恐怖份子有勾結"...
覺得悲哀的是
不管誰對誰錯 誰正義誰邪惡
美國與中東的結
隨著出兵和死傷人數的增加
只會愈來愈盤根錯節
不知何日才能解開...:(

Have You Forgotten
Darryl Worley
(Written by Darryl Worley and Wynn Varble )
I hear people saying we don't need this war
I say there's some things worth fighting for
What about our freedom and this piece of ground?
We didn't get to keep 'em by backing down
They say we don't realize the mess we're getting in
Before you start preaching
Let me ask you this my friend
CHORUS 1
Have you forgotten how it felt that day
To see your homeland under fire
And her people blown away?
Have you forgotten when those towers fell?
We had neighbors still inside
Going through a living hell
And you say we shouldn't worry 'bout Bin Laden
Have you forgotten?
They took all the footage off my T.V.
Said it's too disturbing for you and me
It'll just breed anger that's what the experts say
If it was up to me I'd show it every day
Some say this country's just out looking for a fight
After 9/11 man I'd have to say that's right
CHORUS 1
Have you forgotten how it felt that day
To see your homeland under fire
And her people blown away?
Have you forgotten when those towers fell?
We had neighbors still inside
Going through a living hell
And you say we shouldn't worry 'bout Bin Laden
Have you forgotten?
I've been there with the soldiers
Who've gone away to war
And you can bet they remember
Just what they're fighting for
CHORUS 2
Have you forgotten all the people killed?
Some went down like heroes in that Pennsylvania field
Have you forgotten about our Pentagon?
All the loved ones that we lost
And those left to carry on
Don't you tell me not to worry about Bin Laden
Have you forgotten?
Have you forgotten?
Have you forgotten?
