We are not at war. If we were we would know who our enemy is. Right now we are spending all our money on rebuilding a country that wants us out of there more than we do. 73 American Servicemen needlessly died last month alone. The number of Americans that have died since the end of active combat is almost twice the number that died during active combat.
What we have here is another Vietnam, a war that we don't belong in, where Marines, Sailors, Soldiers and Airmen are dying daily, and for what? What is so great about Iraq that we need to kill ourselves over? Oil? Fu(k that, I'd rather drill in Alaska and Cali than rely on OPEC, disgusting animals.
SELF SUFFICIENCY - something we won't live to see in our lives, sad.

Well what are we going to do you know, none of us have that power to change our superiors. We have to follow the orders that are given to us no matter how much it sucks. Right now its just survival , making it back alive and protecting your buddy while your at it. Close Iraq i hate rotations lol

From the looks of your Pics, you were prob still in bootcamp when the war started ( boot ). So stop talking down on it and show some damn support

And you don't think I knew anyone that was killed over there. 
I was over there and I saw my friends get ambushed on ambush alley, 1/2 C Company I know people that crashed in Helos, etc. so don't sit here and talk **** like I wasn't there.

Never said you weren't there. Didn't say that you didn't loose some friends. To sum it up, what I did say is I don't like the fact that we have to rebuild a place for people that are killing personal friends that I grew up with. Guys that I used to rock dirt bikes with. I'm fortunate, I'm home now. They joined one branch and I joined another. But I'm ****in tired of getting phone calls from my parents and their girls telling me, well they found Matts body today, they found Shanes body today, Brian is still MIA.
Say what you got too, I have pride in my country.

I never said you never had Pride, I know how that **** is about losing someone close, so I am done talking about the losses. But it is not the Iraqi people doing the damage now, it is Saddam's people. 98-99% of the IRAQIS, not Saddam's people are thankful that we set them free. We are not the only ones getting targeted in ambushes now and car bombings. They are targeting the Civilians, the people of Iraq now, not just us. You should of seen their faces when we were rolling through their cities, they came up to us and kissed our feet, gave us money, tried to give us liqour etc.. they were so thankful and it ment a lot to me seeing their faces and how happy they were. MOST of the **** going on now is from Saddam's people or Al Quaida, but yes you do have some of the Iraqi people involved. I mean Saddam is another Hitler, with the MASS GRAVES etc.. do you think people should live in fear like they did? Hell No it just makes me upset when people say we should not be there. OK and lets say after we kicked their asses, we should just pick up and leave? Come on now, we destroyed their damn military. If we would of picked up and left right away, who would defend the Iraqi Civilians when we left?, nobody would of. Then Turkey and Iran would just walk into Iraq and over run it. OK I am done, there is no winning in this topic for either of us, it's like beating a dead horse with a bat.
