ETA: If anyone is wondering why I placed this in the War on Terrorism forum; I placed it here because the War on Terrorism stands to quickly become a War on Veterans.

It's not time. Not yet. There are several other options that MUST be exhausted first.
Originally posted by Corruption ExposedNo one put a gun to your head and made you go overseas to kill innocent people on reasons based on lies. All this thread proves is that you still don't understand you were an illegal invader serving the corporate elite.
Originally posted by Corruption ExposedStop looking for sympathy because you won't find any from me.
For one I find your lack of understanding typical of someone who has likely never risked his life for anything

Here's a video from a Veteran, through his own eye's and his own experiences. I think it hits the nail on the head, and I'd love to hear what other veterans think about it?

I know we agree on some aspects but it's not fair to judge. I prejudged the OP and realized it was foolish to do hopefully you agree.
I have been trying to stay on the topic of the thread and discuss veterans and how they are treated once they return, especially by their government.
Take care.

Here, I linked it properly for you....
Also, I think this guy is a liberal stooge, a whiner and sounds suspiciously like a certain part of the female anatomy. He was likely the guy who balked at every command finished last at every run or challenge. In short he is not a warrior - he is a whiner.
He joined - he joined while we were at war what did he think he was going to do? Paint rocks?
IMO we lost zero when he ceased to consume the air real warriors need to carry out their missions.
That's what I think about this video.

In your opinion, he may not be a "warrior", but as we all know it takes a real man to walk away from a no-win situation, and who, other than the wealthy few are winning ???

There has been many "warriors" injured in action serving their country, yet when they return they have to fight for every cent of entitlement for the rest of their lives. That’s hardly a worthy way of a country treating its "warriors".

And by consuming the real air warriors need, does that include the agent orange sprayed on your own warriors by your own government ? Does that include all your warriors now suffering from Gulf war syndrome ?
Originally posted by AussieDingus
But if those "warriors" spoke up, would they then become whiners, liberal stooges and certain parts of the female body as well ?
For one I find your lack of understanding typical of someone who has likely never risked his life for anything. I will be completely frank and honest with you and everyone here when I say I joined the military not for some false patriotism or sense of civic duty – I joined because I wanted to be a Soldier.
