ESPN.com's Mike Fish on Pat Tillman

Tillman was killed in Afghanistan where Al-Queda had a presence and had set up many terrorist training camps. Even if you don't support the Iraq War, I don't see how you can't support tacking down Al-Queda in Afghanistan.

 

Yes, and Tillman himself wrote before he died that the Iraq war was a huge mistake.
Also, the Gary Smith question above is an intriguing one. He pretty plainly got spun by the army here.

 

Yeah, but Tillman wasn't fighting in Iraq. Afghanistan was a hotbead of Al-Queda terrorism, so there's no way you can say it was a mistake. The post mentioned was one in which someone said that Afghanistan wasn't worth fighting.

 

A lot of people who support the war in Iraq can't separate Afghanistan and Iraq. They both pray to the same god, therefore, they're both behind the 9-11 attacks.
