So anyone who wants to defend themselves and doesn't want to be forced to rely on the US military is "Rambo" now?
Uh... no... anyone who THINKS they can defend themselves against the evils in the world, I call them Rambo's... except Rambo didn't get killed, you would.
I feel so protected waging a war of aggression on a country that never attacked us (Iraq). As I said before, you seem to have some illusion of what the US military actually does, and what their mission actually is. Look through the history books, we wage wars, steal resources, prop up unofficial governments because they support the corporate cause. The soldiers are just pawns on the battlefield.
Not sure what history books you're reading... but in MY country's history, we've gone to war to PROTECT the rights of people... not for corporate causes, please... shed light on your sources (as long as they're not tin foil hat sources)
It seems you think the job of a soldier is to be some crazy mother fucker who doesn't have a problem killing another human being, and doing so without asking questions or feeling any kind of regret afterward.
That is the job a soldier ya ignorant fool! What the hell do you think the military is, a flower brigade? Hell fuck no, they kill shit, and a damn good at it! There is a chain of command, and it is followed... if you want to ask questions, go be a protester and stand on the steps of the capitol. When you join a MILITARY, you join to FIGHT and KILL in the name of your country... we are over in the sandbox for DAMN GOOD reasons, you haven't talked to the Iraqi's over there have you? I have! The soldiers over there know of their support, while ignorant civilians such as yourself get your information from the media.
Because they realize the reality of the situation. They're the ones who actually go through it.
What kind of world do you live in where it's bad to criticize killing innocent people? Oh I get it... It's necessary. OK..
Good God... innocent people are killed everyday, especially in war zones... are you imagining that it is just happening nowadays? You do realize innocent people have been killed in war for thousands of years right? No... it's not okay... but it happens, and it doesn't happen on purpose (unless done by a member of the military who should be in the stocks for life) so tough shit, suck it up... say you're sorry, and move on. Hell, at least the ALLIES apologize for civilian casualties... the terrorists LOVE killing their own kind, don't see you hating on them too much for that, are you a Muslim extremist by chance, do you side with the terrorists?
Right, you'd like a mindless drone of a person who just follows the orders and doesn't think about if any of the people he kills are innocent or not. Yeah, you've stated that much plenty of times. I get it. But what you don't get it this doesn't solve shit and just stacks up the civilian casualty count, and that adds more and more pressure to get shit done faster and even more people get killed in the process. Progress isn't made.
Not a mindless drone, but someone that CAN follow orders, and isn't going to hold anyone back by crying and boohooing because he's having rounds flying over his head. Here's an easy way to tell if someone is innocent or not, if they shoot at you, they're not innocent.
Solving shit isn't done by flowers and cups of tea, we've figured that out long ago... your happy go lucky thoughts of peace are nothing but a grand illusion. Peace will never be attained in this world unless every animal is killed off and the world obliterated... I am sorry to break that news to you, but that's the way it goes.
Build a space ship and go to the moon if you don't like it.
