I don't want to take over that planet..where would I put it?
GERMAN beer Vs AMERICAN beer? PLEASE.
Making JR high arguments usually starts an argument YOU loose by the mods, stopping you.
IT IS A "CODE" for SLAUGHTER, which IS WHY I asked YOUR CANADIAN pal WHAT his idea was.
UNLESS you would RATHER NOT be protected IS THAT what you seek?
WILL it make YOU happy to have YOUR head CUT off?
Then lets DISPENSE with the PHILOSOPHY and find answers people are DYING while we debate.

DU poisons THEM more than US I don't know how they got around the NUKE treaties to use them EITHER. We had access to DU 25mm but we didn't need them Russian armor sucked from the cold war and hasn't much improved.

While I agree that the sacred honor, YES sacred honor, of protecting our liberties was last truly defended during WW2 when a threat of invasion and subsequent conquest was real...
I will say this.
I am of the not so popular belief that without a direct conflict in the ME to keep another threat occupied and off base that we would be facing that same threat of invasion and conquest in the future. History has shown us that extremist groups gain power and then invade beyond the limited climate and wealth their lands can offer.
Without the crusades we would not have Europe as we know it. Spain and southern France are testament to showing patience and appeasement to a centralized Radical Muslim empire. Conquest from that part of the world has been tried many times. It is still an idea that is floating around.
I would not tell you to thank these men for their service or their sacrifice. That is a personal choice. I would thank them for doing what you can not. What you WILL NOT.
I would thank them because it is something yours and my children will not have to do to a greater degree and with greater scarring effects on our people for the things that will be required for survival in a future that we are too blind to see or too emotional to admit to.
ISIS wont invade us. A centralized ME under a theocracy WILL in years to come if nothing is done now.
There is not enough room no matter the size of known territory when two empires reach each others borders. You can accept this or not. I know better.
That is why I say thank you to these people, that and : Gods speed. May your enemies swords chip and break and may your blade never go dull. Your shield is the shield of your people. I am grateful for my peoples secured future. The cost is always worth that IMO.

If it means I don't have to read your replies anymore I would maybe welcome it.
You guys really think you are protecting us overseas. That's so cute.
Get it into your head, nothing you boys have done since WW2 has made the world a safer place, and I don't need your protection if protection means you have to invade ME countries.

SO you welcome the pay back for these IDIOTS GOOD for you ,I SAY no.
GO ahead and die for your feelings,not me pal.
We are a bigger threat to them than they us. But this is probably too difficult for most of the folks on here to comprehend aye. Doesn't fit the Fox News murderous narrative does it?

NO Atrp,1/7 CAV did NOT,we were in BRADLEYS our 25mmAP rounds were TUNGSTEN we were offered DU purple tips but they weren't necessary as our 25mm penetrated T72s,as I stated Aircraft,tanks did MY UNIT did not WE had to CLEAR the radioactive AREAS OF enemy troops in a ZONE recon mission.
I'm afraid you credit me with too much diversive generosity,I DON'T care what they think ,I WON'T accept any reciprocity AT ALL here in America. SURE they can attack if they want.IT'S THEIR losses.
THEY stop or die. I won't appease them they are a faith like any other here.
THAT'S how the 21st CENTURY works now.
I naturally am throughly DISGUSTED by it all as at the time of my service I had seen NO internet and NOW what is KNOWN supports your argument, I did my job well. THAT doesn't mean I intend to whimper and die because of it.
WHO gave my orders was none other than the right hand of the devil,THE UBERSPOOK his self. HIS people are the CABAL what did YOU expect?they want us ALL dead. THAT is what they are STILL doing.
NEW YORK is on their TO DO list you better figure it out for yourself.

But wait.
The Obama Administration is saying exactly the same thing as Fox News about ISIS aren't they.
How can we explain that phenomenon?

I would agree with you except that when looking for insight from history you cant use such a small and insignificant time frame as WW2- Present. Thats like a lazy afternoon in historical terms. Already American and western supremacy is being challenged. If you were talking after a run like Rome or the Persian empire, the rise and fall of a set of dynasties in China or Egypt, or even Nubia...I would consider what you say. We are still engaged in WW2 sir. At least in all the meaningful ways.
As far as legality....I have to laugh a little.
It was illegal for Cesar to cross the Rubicon. It was treason for the southern states of Spain to allow safe passage of Moorish armies into Spain for conquest. It was illegal to kill nobility during the conquest of the Americas yet countless royal lineages were massacred...and so on.
International legalities are formalities of cease fires between empires not yet extinguished. Natural law is supreme always. It is the truth and form that casts its shadow on organic law.
