When servicemen (and women) lose their lives or limbs for no other reason than because they were “following orders” or because they were saving other soldiers' lives (in a place they shouldn’t have been, either), it cheapens the value of that sacrifice.
They bleed and die in vain.
“Look, fair lady” the gentleman says, as he lays his coat in the gutter for her to step on.
“Dude! Don’t be stupid!" she mutters, "I don’t need your coat!”
These valiant men and women are being WASTED in far-off lands FOR NOTHING! Arms, legs, eyes, minds, lives, families…DESTROYED...FOR NOTHING!
We aren’t “saving” ANYONE over there.
If Americans want to go to Afghanistan or Iraq to help “liberate” those fellows, let them go as private citizens. It’s not our fight. The very people we are “saving” would burn our own Constitution and lay waste to our nation, if they could.
While I wish my sons could serve in the military (as I did), I cannot condone them now “serving” for causes (as our military now does) which serve neither our people nor respect the Constitution we, as soldiers, are sworn to uphold.
Our military has been hijacked by global interests that are clearly un-American. To serve in our military now means, sadly, to serve The Beast.
I’m sorry Sgt. Petry lost his hand. We are all poorer for it.
EDIT: How would you feel if Chinese helicopters routinely flew over American cities and blew the hell out of your neighbors' houses, killed their families at wedding parties, and claimed they did it all in the name of "protecting China" from "anti-Chinese terrorists" living in California, Ohio, or Florida? Wouldn't those attacks actually CREATE in you the desire to HATE and ATTACK China?! Of course they would! (If you're a true American.)
We are CREATING terrorists in the Middle East. We shouldn't be there. The only reason they haven't NUKED us yet is because they haven't got one. But if they ever get one....heaven help us.
