Are all soldiers like the Nazis?

Doesn't it? Which is the mindless part? That they were singing carols and exchanging gifts? Or that they were killing each other the next day?

You should be on a war front somewhere. All those who advocate war should.

OK I am not discussing any particular war but all wars in which I repeat

"But the participation isn't mindless its voluntary. WW2 was relevant wasn't it? All the wars are relevant when the men participating can lose life and limb."

This still holds regardless of whatever gifts were exchanged.:rolleyes:

If I were on the warfront somewhere I would be helping someone like my man Ricky!

Which men will lose life and limb? The leaders or the foot soldiers?

The men who fight and civilians of course.

We all play our parts in our own way Sam. With his training he doesn't need me by his side also I think it would be a little distracting for him and his mates. Me being a woman and all.

But Hey Rick if you guys need a good woman to barbecue the rabbits you catch let me know:p I'll bring the paprika and a little sour cream.
 
So its the foot soldiers and civilians then who lose life and limb. Whats relevant about war if they don't participate?
 
Lets just say that all the people who did not volunteer for the occupation did not lose limb nor life and also did not kill any civilians. Can't say the same about the Afghanis and Iraqis who did not volunteer since they are in the wrong place for options.
 
So they are the ones who reduce the relevance of such adventures for the leaders that promote them.

Surely you remember Vietnam? Hard to fight a war with no cannon fodder to volunteer their life and limbs.
 
Yeah everyone remembers what happened the last time there was a draft.

Would you support a draft if they were "needed"?

Don't you find it even remotely interesting that car bombings only occured in Iraq after the US invasion [just like the suicide bombings] and only after Negroponte took command?

Oh, not in the way you find it interesting. But does that make it our fault that arabic people kill each other?

Yes, it does, actually. A good share of it, anyway.

Its very simple. When was the last time an Arab/Islamic country invaded another for religious reasons?

You mean with religious justifications, no?

Pakistan seems to have made a history of it. Further examples in the Sudan/Ethiopian/Somalian mess, Iran/Lebanon, Iraq/Iran, Kurd/Turkey, Indonesia/Timor, etc.
 
The Indonesia Timor thing struck me as very ironic. When do the aboriginals get a referendum?
