> Even if it looks like a warzone now

So you are just going to ignore the hundreds of thousands of people getting killed in the warzone?

Is that the price for freedom and peace?

Yes it is.

Do you think democracy and freedom comes out of nothing? Check the french revolution, history of the UK and other democracies. There is always blood before things go back to be better.

So if you were in living in a warzone, would you be ok for you and your family to be killed as a price for freedom. I dont think so, its easy to say that when your life is not on the line.
