text: You are a dreamer! If our troops were supposed to be in a non-combat situation why arm them. But I have a much bigger question...WHY ARE CANADIANS THERE AT ALL? The entire middle east has been a killing ground for several thousand years. Nothing we do is going to change that. Bring our people home and let the Arabs kill and mutilate each other all they want. To finish off, keep your sick, wounded, poor and destitute over there where they belong, don't send them here for medical treatment, education, and a better life, keep them at home and change the living conditions in their own countries.
