If Rostrup is talking Iraq, so will I...
This morning when I checked out Jorgen Rostrup's web page, I saw his thoughts on the war in Iraq. As a local celebrity, he was asked about the war by the local newspaper.
I suppose it is time to write a few words about the war. I'm sad that the war is going on. I'm worried about everyone involved. I'm worried about what is going to happen. I dread listening to the news on the radio or watching on TV, because the news is so distressing.
I read a few Swedish newspapers and the NY Times online everyday. I usually take a look at the Kansas City Star. I listen to the local radio news and NPR. It seems like the newspapers are covering the "pro" and "anti" war opinions. But, I'm not sure they're covering what most people in the U.S. probably think. Most people I meet in a day seem to be thinking like me. They aren't "pro" or "anti" -- they're just distressed, worried, upset and uncomfortable.
