You can disagree with the war/policy and still have respect for the chain of command.

I don't agree with iraq, but i would do my job to maybe help save the lives of the guys we have on the ground there. If those army types run into a shitload of crazies that outnumber them i want to be the one that helps out with the air support to give them a hand. I'm not fighting for a "free iraq" i'm fighting to help our guys come home alive.

That is how you support the troops without supporting the policy of this war.

Who sais they don't want it? They may not want the opposing religious group to be in control of the country but I do belive they want democracy. I think people get that confused.

If they wanted it they would be trying to get it right now. That means working with each other instead of blowing each other up. Iraq is going to get ugly, i predict a civil war (some say it's already started) and the country will be split up in the end to a couple different countries that will just invade each other for the next 6000 years.

That's just my opinion.

Iraq all of the Middle East is always going to be something. They say there is a lot of house to house fighting. Worse is that they are not fighting a Army just some guys, no particular uniform or nothing. I dont know that much about Nam , from what I can tell the fighting is a lot like that one

That's why I thought I'd post some pics to help prove your point.

Never heard of it.

**snaggeltooth** · 04-05-2006, 05:48 PM

It is hosted by R Lee Ermey, the D.I. from Full Metal Jacket. He takes military questions that people have e-mailed in and answers them. He is a exMarine DI, you can tell. Very cool show. Comes on History Channel

So now unless you're a parrot for all of the latest government's war making policies you shouldn't join the military?

How retarded!

The reason I would never fight in a war for this country. These ass hats in control of our troops are being careless with them and getting them killed because, hey, they aren't the President's kids. I guarantee things would be far different if our top political officials' kids were over there fighting.
