killing and destroying. they are being rewarded for that. do you not get how that is wrong? taking the life of a baby, even if its unintentional just so they can get ahead.

Dude seriously, you are so incredibly twisted. The world isn't a business where the point is to maximize the profit, which would be your "advancing the evolution of humans." You are talking about living, breathing, human beings who are simply trying to provide a decent life for themselves and their families, whether it be poor Iraqis or Americans who join the military. You say you don't support the military becasue they are "hired killers" who are either too stupid to go to college or enjoy being "a part of a giant killing machine." I challenge you to find more than ten service people who enjoy killing in all of Iraq. Most are there to simply try and provide a decent life for themselves and family. College is not an option, or at least not until after they leave the military. 99.9% of the military are decent, smart, rational people who hate seeing dead Iraqi kids as much as you do. Therefore, they completely deserve our support.

Notice how it says "Support our Troops," not "Support our Idiot Leaders who have caused the death of thousands by an unnecessary war" or "Support Killing Innocent Iraqi Children."

oh man, 'so they can get ahead.' You mean, ahead to the shitty life of an infantryman, with low pay, being sent across the world away from your family, and a chance of dying every day?

i think anything other then innocent people is a marvelous idea. and if there is no other way for them then they need to stop being selfish and give up.

I don't see how 'giving up' includes going to boot camp, being sent to war, and being owned by the country is being selfish.

let's try again:

I don't see how it's selfish or giving up to be sent to boot camp, go to war, and be owned by your country.

giving up is the most selfish thing they can do, in doing so they ruin alot of oportunites for their kids and then all they do do is collect wellfar payments and become a leach to society

Wow you are comparing Cheny and Rove to Saddam and Ossama? The leaders of our government do not kill their own people man. Hence freedom of speech, that is something the Iraqi's did not have. Have you seen the things Saddam did to them when they spoke out against him? You need to shut your mouth because if Cheny was like Saddam, YOU would be the first one to get beaten, executed, or maybe even thrown off a roof blind folded you ignorant asshole.

if you guys really support what they are doing and think that its really worth the effort, than sign up for the ARMY right freaking now.  If you dont, everything you said about "helping the less fortunate" just went right out the window.  You think that we need to help them out and enforce democracy on them but you dont want to do it yourself, but yet you think its worth doing??  good god you are brainwashed....

Again, you are not understanding the distinguishing between supporting our military and supporting the wars our country fights. Dont bitch about soldiers when you disagree with ourr reasons to go to war, go bug your senator.

Well I was turned down from the Navy because I've had too many knee surgeries and can't be drafted due to an Endocrine disorder. Evidently, I have a right to speak about helping the less fortunate?

Considering the Taliban was and still is a revolutionary force having nothing to do with terrorism...

But yeah, you have no idea what it's like to be poor in this country. Neither do I, really. I know people who come from destitute areas that have moved with relatives in nicer areas to try to get a better life. Basically you are trapped, you think a public school system in Harlem is going to send kids to Harvard? Hah! You have a huge misconception of the way social classes work.

I'm not saying the military does good things, but I would definitely choose that then have to sell crack and get arrested only to be thrown in jail and inevitably repeat the cycle of being trapped.

Iraq didn't harbor terrorists until we invaded, and they still don't really. It's just war tactics, they aren't trying to attack the US.

While they may be suicide bombing and such, they really aren't terrorists of our concern (by this I mean they don't have US targets in mind). The word terrorist is so played in our minds that we have created an image and along with that image emotions have been created for us. It's causing a pretty bad misconception to the population of the US to see what's really happening in the world.
