I am a Candian citizen and I was living in the States at during 911. I am back living in Canada and just today I heard on the radio that 60 Canadian troops have died in Afganistan so far. I do not agree with the ideology behind this war but, as you said, troops are simply following orders for what they believe to be a just cause. I support each individual soldier in his and her endeavors and I simply want them home alive and safe.
