tsk tsk...why would you make such a bold faced ridiculous statement?

"The point is you sent US soldiers to die there for no particular reason. And you have to deal with it. That should be easy for you though, since you have no conscience.

That's your POINT>>> oh here let me help you out:

I did not send anyone anywhere. I am not a member of the armed forces, I am not a government employee of any kind and I was not asked to vote on this particular action.

It is my understanding that when people enter the US military they do so with the understanding that the primary purpose of a military is to be prepared to use violent force to advance or protect political ideals and interests. I am sorry but you seem to have failed to comprehend the meaning of the military. We do not have a draft. We have an all volunteer force. This means that people entering the military have willingly and intentionally made themselves available for deployment according to the ideals and interests identified by their superiors, and according to the intended purpose of the military. Your insistance that they are victims is just plain unfounded.

"...for no particular reason."

I can go through a long list of reasoning for you but since you seem comfortable with heinous despots who have declared their intent to destroy America, and who are torturing, murdering, and oppressing people by the hundreds of thousands I do not think it would be of any benefit to you.

That is all just sad...here is the ridiculous part...

"...since you have no conscience."

Stop exposing your self; it is becoming obscene.
