Anyone else support the war like myself?

[Steel]

I really hope we don't get out of the war soon, I'll be furious, I'm rejoining the marine corps in the fall and cant wait to get over there.

[Havok]

I'm not a hippie or anything, but in my eyes it's not a war. As far as I'm concerned our last war was the Falkland Conflict.

[Steel]

for the uk maybe. and i dont think its really a war either, but i dont think we should stop being there.

[VirDeBello]

Its something we can't win at, atleast with the policies we use. Maybe we do what the Romans did, either become a territory or state of Rome or be killed. Period. lmao Too bad it can't be that easy..........or can it.....? lol

[MANFRA]

Here's the deal.. we will not win Iraq over and turn it into a democracy.. So we 1. stay there for 10 more years and lose thousands and thousands of more lives.. or 2. we can leave now so many will live to see another day.

Hey Steel, this is reality, not counter strike. You don't restart at the end of the round. You also don't sound like a marine to me.. they're smarter then what you're making yourself out to be.

[Paladin]

That warmonger attitude is what makes me agree with Manfra.

You don't want the war to end? Are you serious? You want more and more human lives to be lost every day? That's ridiculous, and barbaric. Also you want to go over there....Why? To end lives yourself? To deprive a family of a father, a son, a mother, or of anything of the like?

Believe me, when you get over there your going to regret it when your looking into the empty eyes of a dead child.

I figure it's either like Paladin said, or you're suicidal.
So which is it? You want to kill people or looking for a way to get killed?

[Hunter]

It may sound crazy but I think World War 3 sounds exciting as much as I wish it never happens it would still be...interesting. O and plus I don't support war unless for good cause...like world domination...if only there was some way war wouldnt involve injuries.

[LegalSmash]

steel, you seem to misunderstand the difference between supporting a war and actively contracting yourself to wage it.

I'll first say that I support the troops, and the mission, in the narrow sense that the mission is to stabilize a country through enabling its own forces to police their territories and root out terrorism, corruption, and generally run a country in an agreeable fashion. I dont support however, the occupation of a hostile area without any real purpose outside of "standin' round in the dustbowl". I have friends there that are officers, 2 in intel and one in artillery. Here is the basic scenario: We patrol, drive around, stand at checkpoints, they set off bombs, take pot shots, or sabotage some sort of thing and try to blow our guys up....

I mean, call me crazy, but I dont see any real attractive experience there steel. I dont see what kind of "pleasure (Dare i say)" you would get from that.

Legal thats why I don't support this war anymore, because the mission and planning of it was very poorly done. As for Steel, he watches too many Rambo movies.. and maybe it would be for the better if one of the AO's perm. ban him from C.S. lol. Joking of course.
