I do that already but, yes I agree, those men and women are fighting in good faith that the leaders of our country only sent them because they needed too. I Pray that they all come home safely to their families.

WHAT?

I have enough friends who have questioned their own actions.

What exactly are they sacrificing by killing children?

I completely disagree with you - it isn't about gratitude at all - it is about Greed and ignorance.

Hows you gas tank doing by the way?

confused confused dunno

What if what they're sacrificing for is actually destructive to us and to them? What sense would that make then?

In Nazi Germany and the former Soviet Union under Stalin - as well as under countless other militaristic tyrannies - thiese were the prevailing sentiments as well.

As opposed to unthinkingly praising soldiers or the US Government or our Fatherland, why not apply a little critical thinking instead?? I'd highly recommend using critical logic rather than emotionalistic sentiment in evaluating the actions of our government and military.

I wanted to try to explain such a thing - I have found that sentimentalism and apathy usually prevail.

I don't approve of violence but it's sometimes necessary. I guess if you want an example you can simply look at the many genocides that have taken place over the years.

I believe there's an appropriate time to turn the other cheek but there's also a time to fight and unfortunately during those times people die and sometimes they are the innocent. This is not good but the alternative is worse. If someone wants to kill you, you have a choice. Die or defend yourself.

Question the people that send them , but thank the soldiers, they do what they are told because they are told it is for the greater good , theirs is not to question why there’s is but to do or die ,

We all believe USA to be a democratic country where voters have the power, as opposed to the other countries you named.

I agree, use your critical thinking, but do not aggress your soldiers working for a democracy. You have the right to vote and to express your opinions; the right people to address are sitting in offices.
