We don't need to give meaning its an experience for the individual. His friends didn't die for nothing. They were part of your dads experience and when you look in your dads eyes thats what you see.

I think that terrorists are pretty much the same thing as a soldier.

Biker...are we then to conclude that your beef is actually with the method used by terrorists?
Dropping bombs on strategic targets is one thing, but detonating yourself amongst innocent civilians has got to be wrong no matter what beliefs you have.

Yeah why do people supprt soldiers... or terrorists for that matter as they are the same thing with a different label.
If you think thae cause is just its a soldier and you support him or his cause... if you think the cause is unjust you call them terrorists and dont support them.
