>> Have you served in the US military? I did and I can tell you that many people who served did so for the same reason I did. I did too. So don't give me any sanctimonious bs.. And I can tell you the only people who were there that were not drafted, and who were not un-employed were there because a judge told them they had a choice. Enlist, or go to jail for some misdemeaner or possible mild felony. >> Patriotic Americans have a sense of duty and honor to serve the country as Congress and/or the President sees fit while in exchange for these services the volunteer learns skills to enable them to get a start on a career. The patriotism is just a ruse to get people to surrender their moral judgement. If called on to testify, I can swear with clear conscience that I did not encounter ONE SINGLE PERSON below e-5 in Fort Campbell, Fort Sam Housten, Fort Sill, or Fort Lewis who gave patriotism as their reason for being in the army. And there was hardly anyone who wasn't impatiently counting the days till they were short. >> Wait time will prove me right, their will be tremendous bloodshed in the Mideast over the next several years.. Time has already proven you right. There is tremendous bloodshed every day in the middle east. >> Oil consuming nations wont be held hostage to the attacks of Islamofascists. They will be hunted down and exterminated. Iran will be the next nation suffering a wake up call. No US president will commit political suicide by invading Iran to get oil. It is easier to build nucular power plants. I just don't see how the Saudi ruling family can last with their repression. That society is ready to explode. I have no idea how it will settle out, or how long that will take.
