I thanks USA soldier for stealing ressource and killing people in a foreign country so that the rich can get even richer.
I would also like to thank everyone of you who think that killing somebody is wrong but when you do it in a uniform with trumpets in the back and the assentiment of your country it’s right.
Just imagine someone came up to them and told them this:
Dude, we both know killing and stealing is wrong but I have a piece of magic cloth that makes it all ok.
No really, as long as you wear it and do as I say you are not responsible for even your worst actions .
Everyone would immediately think that person was insane.
And yet,that really is the whole story.
Oh, and when they have been really good at that they get shiny metal objects they can pin on their heroic bosom because we all know that chicks dig shiny things.
You are both complete idiots.
Why? What they said was correct.
It should not be a problem for you to explain why they are idiots.
What they said was correct? Please point out when American troops have stolen resources so the rich get richer? Please explain to me why killing and enemy combatant in uniform is wrong? And please explain to me the real meaning behind the, " shiny metal objects they can pin on their heroic bosom"?

A. The troops don’t steal resources themselves, but they serve as an arm for the state and big business. You’ll notice all those lucrative oil contracts that France and Russia had in Iraq went up in smoke when the U.S invaded. KBR, Raytheon, Northrup Gruman, Xe, DynCorp, etc are all making a killing, with their abuses well documented, because of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.
War is excellent way for the power elite to make money. This was the reason that sumbitch Woodrow Wilson got us into WWI and it is the reason for the governments continued shit-stirring in the Middle East.
B. It’s probably wrong to kill people in foreign lands when the U.S. government had no reason to be there in the first place (i.e. SE Asia, the Balkans, the Middle East).
C. I’m sure he is referring to shiny medals Soldiers get after killing the enemy. Sorry, but I don’t see how that would be anything to be proud of.
It’s also telling that I had to explain any of this to you.
