Supporting the troops and supporting the war are two different things. In the US any opposing political views are portrayed as "not supporting the troops" and un-patriotic. Some may even call that propaganda. As the two wars drag on this rhetoric finally seems to be falling on deaf ears in America. I hope that we in Canada do not let our political leaders get away with trying (continuing) the same argument of equating the two. Our troops of today and yesterday deserve all the support and gratitude we can give them, the vast majority of Canadians feel the same way. The domestic debate of whether the war is justified will continue for years, let's force the politicos to hash it out on it's merits and not use a phony argument as a way of dividing the country.
