War is hell! So they got shrapnal in the face....do you think that is uncommon? Its too bad but people get hurt in war. Many get killed. If you or anyone actuallly thought we were gonna go to war and not get some killed or injured, sorry.
Yes, war is hell. That's why a president should never, ever send our troops off to hell without it being our national interests. He should not send them off undermanned, without their heavy armor or personal body armor. Bush did all these things. People do get hurt and killed. But they didn't have to be in Iraq. They're there because George W. Bush wanted to get Saddam. It's his personal vendetta, nothing more.
Each and every one of the troops over there volunteered for service. It dont make me happy when someone gets killed or injured. I feel that some people on here watch the news and rejoice when they find out americans were killed today.....so they can say "see, our boys are dying, get them out" They signed up for service knowing dang well they may have to go to war. My entire family is/was military and or retired military. I have a sister in law in the guard who bawled like a baby when she found out she was being deployed. I felt bad but ya know what? She had been drawing the weekend warrior pay for 20 years.....so i didnt feel sorry. People get hurt in war people....
Not true. The Army has put a stop loss order in place. Some people scheduled to get out can't. Traditionally National Guard units work in their home state; they certainly didn't expect to be sent off for years to a foreign country.
Waiting to see your pic of Jane Dis Fonda sitting on top of a talaban anti-aircraft gun....got any of those to post?
There you go again, trying to confuse the issue. Iraq has nothing to do with the Taliban. The Taliban was involved with Osama Bin Laden who planned the 9/11 attack against this country; Saddam wasn't. Keep spinning, though, some people still don't know the difference. But we're working hard on this board to be sure everyone who reads it knows the difference.
