"Do I support the troops? I really don't know. Maybe not, I guess. But I can certainly understand anyone who does, and I think I'm also beginning to understand those who don't."
this is what matters. but remember one side is correct. keep thinking...critically.

"One side is correct."
I don't know about that. That's what opinions are all about. In fact, in most situations I'd say that's wrong -- who is "right" and "wrong" these days hinges on where you're from, what your income is, who you voted for and if you're religous. Or some variation of that.
In fact, I think I really disagree with the "one side is correct" idea. That seems like an almost offensive thing to say to someone who was just supporting your thought process, more or less, if not your conclusion. (not that you care)
I dunno. That just came off as too self-serving for my taste. Yeah, I think it's an awful war begun for the wrong reasons and continued for no reasons. But if Joe Smith wants to say he supports the troops, who am I or anyone to say he's "wrong?" Even if I disagree?
I feel like you just took my general comment in your support and really tried to take advantage of it. That bothers me.
