Blind and ignorant to the truth has been an issue throughout all of mans existance. The troops are becoming mroe and more aware of the issue but many are more afraid of prison than being called unpatriotic. I can not fault them for that and I do understand them, it will take military leaders within to stand up right and state that the actions of the past and present are unfair and unjustified and then the people need to stand behind them to clean this up.

How is it patriotic to fight in a war which wasted $600 billion of Americans tax money? Yes the governments start the war, but its the soldiers that do the dirty job.

It would have been patriotic if America was attacked and these soldiers had joined to defend the country, not going all the way to Iraq, killing hundreds of thousands of Iraqis

and also a few thousands of Americans

Southernpersian, I agree with u. US just came there to get the oil from Turmenistan and build their oil pipeline through Afghanistan and Pakistan. Then, China won't get it and they will control the region. They have understood that power is shifting towards East and they just can't bear it!!!

Like the boston tea party, the alamo; the herding of africans to america as cattle; the rape and pillaging of an indigenous populations land and its women. You can't execute terrorism as only effective and valid in 1 time period it must be effectively defined to accommodate all time periods. We are terrorists and the best at it. Your comprehension of simple black and white ethics and morals is questionable based on your ability to define something as simple as violence against a blind target.

[IKLIPTIC]

You mean American Government. Do not state that it is America when it is not. The people would rather not be there, the soldiers would rather not be there, but out of patriotic duty we go. Politics is and has always been politics; never blame the citizens of a horrible political organization.

My condolences to the good ppl in America that your countrymen are such fuckwads, but ya should have stopped them when ya had the chance
