R.I.P To them all. But I'm completely against what they're doing.
They shouldn't be laying down their lives for worthless causes. Shame that they die so young not really knowing better, or knowing a good life for that matter.

Actually no you didn't you insulted everything they stand for.

Those that enlist know exactly what they are doing. They are doing a JOB and that job is to listen to what their government tells them to do. I don't see you guys risking your lives like them for a JOB so show some respect. YOU may not like what they are doing or the government for telling them to do it but they are putting their lives on the line to help our country be what it is today.

Our country wouldn't be what it is without EVERY single soldier that died, fought, and survived for it.

Berz out.

you should watch, Naqoyqatsi: Life as War.

we're human, we long to be something we are not. it's a fantasy.

we can wish to be all happy and peaceful.

or we can be all robotic and precise and efficient.

there's no difference because, they're both something, which we are not.

That is 100% true.. but under the condition that said country is under threat/ immediate danger from another invading force.

My opinion might have come off as ignorant to some, and rightfully so, I should have stated what military I was talking about.

I can't really say anything negative regarding Canada's military. I don't see you invading anybody really.. I do see the small military presence in Iraq and etc, but that's a different story.

But the U.S. is completely different and I had them on my mind when I said what I said.
Obama is a disappointment, another fucking puppet. Nothing is new or changed. There is only the illusion of change. I seriously feel like a fool for trusting him or believing in anything he said. But I learned. Youth can be fooled easily.. and it will not happen again.

If this asshole invades Iran, you'll know that the presidency doesn't matter.. it's the people behind it that control everything.. the presidents are just puppets..

With that said, I do not support the US military. RIP to the good ones that die and to the ones that don't know any better, because they think they're fighting for their "freedom" but how can you be fighting for YOUR freedom in someone else's country? It doesn't make any sense. It's brainwash.. and that's not to say that these soldiers are stupid.. it's just that their love for their country is used against them by the people that seek to control them.

Like George Carlin said, it's just a bunch of old men protecting their wealth and using young men to die for them" nothing less than that.. and it's true.

Yeah, I agree. We're somewhere in the middle.. at least in my opinion.

11.11.11 in Asia was a celebratory day, people going out to get married, especially at 11am, whereas halfway across the world it's a day of somber remembrance. I almost feel bad for sending Happy 11111111! messages to my friends in Canada that day :S woops!
