So I'm sitting in my Psychology lesson yesterday, when all of a sudden my teacher says "So what do you think about this war then?", in the stupidly irrelevant way that he does.
All sorts of opinions start flying around, and this girl starts mouthing off about God knows what. I'm sure she didn't even know. One minute she's saying it's wrong the next minute she's saying "And if we don't do anything, in a few month's we'll be getting anthrax attacks". Nuff said on that one.
Then later my teacher said "SO how many people have died so far?"
Me: "Three", said in an obviously jokey manner as a bit of light hearted banter. It got a few titters.
Other girl: "It started at-"
Me: "No, I meant how many people have died so far"
Her: "...Eleven isn't it?"
She couldn't even tell that I wasn't being serious. And we wonder why the government don't listen to public opinion.

This war is highly hypocritical. For everything they're trying to pin on Iraq there is another country doing the same who we are either leaving alone or are actively friends with.
Until now I have been prepared to accept the War campaign as being necessary for the future security of this country. I wasn't prepared for what I have just seen on television. Baghdad is under heavy attack, explosions are leaping hundreds of feet in the air and there are buildings burning all over the city. I am just stunned that this country could do something on this scale and try and justify it. There is simply NO way that this bombing can be called 'carefully targeted' , what we are seeing is the destruction of a city. I feel ashamed of my country tonight
