Minitary should be used for one thing, and one thing only: Home land security.
They should not be going off to other countries to fight.
If our allies are UNDER ATTACK, then we go to THEIR country and defend them too.
but we CANNOT allow our troops to fight wars off allied and home land soil!!!
END OF DEBATE.

she knew what she was getting into when she enlisted. She is an adult now and has to make her own choices. Love her enough to support her in her pursuit of lifes experiences, and it doesnt matter if its right or wrong in your mind. whats important is whats right in *her* mind.

The people we're fighting in Iraq have no organized military, navy, or air force, they're not going to roll up on our beaches..And I'd say most homes in America have at least one gun in them, and every country in the world knows that, which is why japan had to sneak up on us at pearl harbor to hurt us...

Mark my words, the day some sorry pieces of shit invade our country, I will take arms and defend my country with my life, just as the people in the middle east are defending their country against foreign presence.
I get so fucking tired of people saying Iraq and protecting our freedom in one sentence. It's dying to defend Iraq's freedom, a country that if the shoe was on the other foot wouldn't give a SHIT about what happened to us.

Both the dem and rep candidates aren't worth knockin inna head. I am afraid I will have to vote for the alternative this time around. It won't be who I am voting for, it will be who I am voting against.

Bottom line is half the country has no clue, and the others were raised to believe in what others tell them. Any of you who think this war isn't over black gold are fools. Our country was built on that black gold and we are running out...The few oil reserves we have here dont cover a third of what we use.
Use your head. What do us as Americans do when we want something or want to make something our way? The very thing that we have done from the beggining of time...
Personally I don't think it is right.

I'm assuming your talking about America even though you have an English flag...

Finally, if this war were for oil why the hell are we paying $4 a gallon? That's simply ignorant. I think it would seem natural that if the reason for this war were "black gold" oil would be cheaper. The Iraqi's control their oil not the American government.
I don't even think we're getting a discount from them, yet the war was over oil...

Our military in Iraq pays full price for it. Doesn't make sense to me.
