Do you support our troops who are over in murderous lands, both people-wise, and weather-wise? Do you do anything at all for them? Or just complain about them. Have you even sent them a "care type package" with different flavorings for the water, candy (nonmeltable), wipes for their skin, cards, socks, little reading lamps, calling cards, etc etc etc...? We have. Many packages. No, I have not sent them packages. You are to be commended for doing so. Of course, most Americans are feel badly they are in such a terrible place. BUT most Americans are grateful that there are those who really do care about freedom, and are putting their lives on the line for the rest of us. For the people who want to take from the country, with scholarships, free anything they can get their hands on the easy .... I say, don't join the military. The Military is for Heros, not crumbs. You know....you go from good guy to jerk in all of two paragraphs. There are few heroes in war.......that's why they call the average GI a grunt. Many of these guys are poor but want a better life. The military sells them on the idea of signing up by offering them help with school. So why is it a bad thing if that's the reason they join the military? And what in the heck is >> Do you have any idea the death and deprivation that millions of people are suffering because you all have unleashed the American and Israeli militaries?<<<<<< I believe it was Hezbollah who have been going into Israeli territory for a long time, not the other way around. Have you been reading anything, or just spouting? Hezbollah and Israel have been irritating each other for years........here's a quick and dirty timeline since 2000: mapreport.com And are you telling me that American soldiers are over in Lebanon fighting the Hezbollah? Care to show proof of that....???? No, I never was suggesting that the US military was in Lebanon. Its in Iraq.
