OHGODMENTALIMAGE. GETOUTGETOUTGETOUT.

Yeah, except we put Hussein there. We supported him, gave him money and arms. There was nothing good about putting down Hussein, just America wiping their ass. Whilst still screwing people over. What? I don't think I said anything of the sort.

Two points; a) Without soldiers, we would not have military. b) Since when is being idealistic a bad thing? EDIT: And I think the main purpose of the group and the movement isn't to complain about soldiers, more to get rid of the hero-worship that goes with being a soldier.

Yup. They no longer ever talk to me, when I try talking to them they say they hate me and don't want to see me, and then had their friend come and try to beat me up.

Oh yeah, there's the quote. "Not only secured oil for the USA, but is culturally uplifting that country by force." The second part of the quote is possible the most pretentious thing I've heard in a while. The first part is what I was making an analogy to. So we shouldn't complain partly because...

But is this method really "right"? As in, if we're truly striving for what's best, who's to say that self-determination is best for people?

Yeah. Reading back, I think there was a post that has gone missing or something. I definitely saw someone making a point about how it's okay to invade because we're getting resources and the like. But regardless, my point to you would be that how do we know that our way is the right way? Why...

So if I beat up some kid and stole his lunch money, it's fine because I benefited from it?

Who are we to decide who's inferior?

Yeah, no. In fact, whilst they were allied with us, Iran, an Islamic country, actually idolised America and was trying to become it. "We always loved America. To us, America was the great country, the perfect country, the country that helped us while other countries were exploiting us." (All The...

No, that's incorrect. a) Whilst they may not remember the events of 50 years ago, they still feel the hatred that their parents had towards America, and their parent's parents, which stemmed from this coup. b) Hussein attacked Iran purely because he believed them to be weak, which they were at...

Well, in my opinion, it's not necessary. With every war won, there's a side that loses, a side that bears grudges. World War 1 ended, Germany went into a depression. Through this depression, (and forgive the reducio ad Hilterum) Hitler was able to convince people to follow him, because he gave...

I think the main reason I agree is because of the huge amount of people who automatically think that being a soldier warrants a huge amount of respect. And not only that, but there also seems to be this public opinion that you should join the army, and if you don't, you're a coward. And Synre...

For anyone who has Facebook, here's the link to check it out. I recently became aware of this movement and opinion, and wonder what other people think about it. In my opinion, the movement is completely reasonable, and makes sense. Its purpose is to "point out the absurdity of the many...
