Title: ALARMING Soldier Suicide Rate
Post by: howardroark on August 18, 2012, 09:15:34 PM
"The Pentagon, which tracks military suicides, reported that troops have committed the act at an 18 percent increase over the same period last year. Now, more troops die by their own hands that by the hands of the Taliban in Afghanistan."

That's a shame... We should definitely be providing a lot more mental services to our returning troops... They things they've seen and had to deal with, without a clear enemy it makes it so very difficult.

When our troops can determine right and wrong and they can truly see they are "right", it makes their mental state so much healthier.

She's complaining after she volunteered to enlist? In a time of war, nonetheless.

All this stuff would have a point if it wasn't a VOLUNTEER army. No one forces anyone to enlist. It's entirely shocking that people join the military to be soldiers and end up, you know, going to war.  ::)


Do women in the Army National Guard even see combat?

This is true... they do not force you to enlist, but if you get in and you really don't like it, or you take issue with some of the decisions, there's not a real "out clause" you know.

I'm pretty sure most people are aware that they're enlisting for a set number of years and that at any point they could end up in combat.

Jesus, talk about holding hands. Now this isn't directed at you but it's kind of funny that libertarians like Howard will argue that people should be able to eat or drink whatever they want yet they don't want to apply that same standard to their ability to serve in the military.

The choices we make dictate the lives that we lead.

If you're in the military, you should be able to vote and drink end of story imo.  That's pretty fucking simple.  If you're considered old enough to go die in war, you should be able to vote and drink.  That's pretty fucking simple.  If you don't trust that age to drink or vote you shouldn't allow them make a choice where they could go off and die in war.  That's pretty fucking simple.

I think they should really tell soldiers how the world 'really works' before they sign up.

too often, it's wide-eyed visions of pulling baby iraqis from burning buildings, hugs from the foreigner, and a shiny stiff uniform with a sword.

Reality of what they do there, and why they do it - much different.

Whats her name...MOS/unit......for every trigger puller there are 20 of her that never leave the FOB or see an shot fired in action ever. As for the suicides....we go through BS classes, had one this past week. We get seen when we get home....most don't answer the questions correctly because of retribution that may or may not exist. I've see guys who after being blown up couldn't even count and developed sutters. Other people are fine. They are now doing a test prior to deployment that gives a baseline for mental acuity so if ur blown up they can see a change.

Back the the poster...less then 1% serve or have served in the military.....if a your engaging a vet, my default would be skeptic.

240 what guy who's enlisted in the last 12 years...hasn't seen any 24hr news channel...utube...war porn. Gimme a break.

Get this. Iraqis HATE YOU, just because you can give a few sell outs 10 bux to smile on camera does not change the reality.

In teh end YOU are the loser and will always remain a loser. The funny thing is now you let a shia government in power and you wana confront Iran. Jokes on you. How many times you FLIP FLOP who you support for your own interests. In the end don't you see it does NOTHING for you and just makes EVERYONE your enemy because of your perpetual evil actions?

You can spend all the billions of  dollars you want in beautifying yourself and demonizing the rest of the world but ppl know they are not that dumb anymore.

I could care less of the Iraqi's hate us...as long as the oil flows. If you rags think we give a fuck about any of you in the Middle East your joking. I gave more food to the dogs I saw on the street then I ever did to either the Iraqi's or the Afghans. We will and have always done what's in our best interest. Does anybody care about what happened in the Sudan....nope....but if there was oil or something else there...I'd have a tour there as well. We care about Africa only as long as we can exploit the mineral and oil wealth...as it turns out my car runs on gas. Until that changes we'll continue to hug our arab brothers..and take their shit.

Do you understand how important oil is for the global economy, let alone the U.S. economy? Do you know what is liable to happen if imports from the M.E. are reduced significantly or if the transport of oil is disrupted (e.g., if the Strait of Hormuz is closed)? It's a big deal for a reason!

Neither Iraq under Saddam nor Iran right now would undertake that maneuver - it would be economic suicide.

May God reward you in equal terms you accursed low life. You may get away with what you've done to these people.. but may God give you equal in this world and the next.

There's two camps in this war who went in as soldiers. Those who saw and were disgusted and spoke out and left. Those who are SICK and will rot in hell and be accursed in this world for their evil. You are of the later. God curse you.

There had to be a reason to go in, WMD was as good as any after 9-11, we wanted revenge on someone anyone. Sure Saddam had some shit left over, possible was thinking about spinning up his program again. Since the UN is basically useless, easy enough to discredit them. You can't tell the American people, hey look we are going to secure the oil supplies in the ME, so we are going to invade.

we wanted to go in to set up bases (saudis kicking us out back then) and get a foothold for that oil, even if it will be used decades from now.

UN got to search the country, found nothing.  Saddam was a dick but he kept the place calm. 

The 'sell' to the US population was WMD, exporting democracy, and other noble nonsense.  I dont care that we invaded, only that our leaders had to lie to us about it.  Just say "oh, we want bases and oil, chill out brah" and I'm okay with that.

I think those in power do the cold power calculations AND try to promote noble causes, at least on occasion. From the various examples of intervention, it seems clear that the primary goal is always some perceived security interest, e.g. securing oil or deposing some douche that is destabilizing the area. But that doesn't mean someone planning the operation can't also believe some noble cause will be promoted as well.

Still, noble causes are never promoted on their own without an accompanying security interest. That's why we deploy so little to Africa, a place perfect for noble interventions against poverty, genocide, dictatorship, disease, and everything else. There just isn't an accompanying security interest most of the time.

So, while the government always lies about every single operation being about a noble cause, the reality is that a noble cause is only promoted when it happens to co-exist alongside a security interest . That being the case, I think it's fair to say Operation Iraqi Freedom was about democracy and liberation to some extent; it's just that these factors weren't the primary reason we were there, and if they were the only reasons to intervene, we wouldn't do it.

Do you REALLY think they CARE that gadaffi bombed muslim villages who wanted to rule by Islam? No. The US is already waging a war against Islam and Muslims but selectively supported Muslims in Libya while installing a puppet and no one but the US gets what they want in the end.

Africa is RICH in gold, silver, diamonds and all sorts of resources and minerals. Africa would PROSPER if Gadaffi went forward with his idea hence the US interveneed.

The US government is nothing BUT SCUM that has its own interests and is selfish and would NEVER be selfless except if it expects in return a shit load of things in return and thats not being selfless thats being deceitful and evil.

back in 2004-2005, guys like me and hugo were openly mocked for our beliefs about WMD and sadaam.  Bringing democracy, they said.  It's not about oil.  Those bases are only temporary.  Our govt has no interest in bases.  Strategic position?  lolzer, what a CT. 

the war is nearly ten years old... we have leases to remain on their soil for 15 more years (then add'l renewals). 

I guess they can say "It's not a PERMAMENT" base as bush and obama both did... keep renewing lease and it's effectively the same thing.

not that i care - it's the price the US pays to be #1.  I can't hate unless I want to live in a mud hut.

there was no single reason for invading.

Neither Iraq under Saddam nor Iran right now would undertake that maneuver - it would be economic suicide.

I think you are absolutely right that it would have been irrational for Saddam's Iraq to disrupt commerce in the Strait just as it would be for Iran to do so now.

The problem is, states (which are treated as single units of analysis, when really their behavior is produced by groups of people) aren't fully rational because the people who run them aren't fully rational. Sometimes, they are straight up irrational. So it's a risky move to establish foreign policy supported mainly by assumptions of rationality. There are a million examples in history of this being a bad idea.

Here are two relevant ones: in the Iran-Iraq War, the two combatants extended their war into the Persian Gulf and targeted each other's shipping in the so-called "Tanker War." It got so bad that they were at one point attacking neutral shipping. Then, in the Gulf War Saddam mined the Strait of Hormuz, and it took a 50+ day operation called "Operation Candid Hammer" to clear the mines and allow commerce to return to normal.

Long story short, Iran and Iraq have in the recent past irrationally sabotaged the international commerce that goes through the Strait and into the Gulf, each time inflicting billions in losses to the global economy. The U.S. can't simply say "It would be irrational for Iran to close the Strait, therefore they won't do it!" Given the instability of the area it is probably most rational to keep a military presence there as a hedge, even if a closure is unlikely.

May God deprive you of all your wealth lest you abandon your evil quest.

Quote
Surah 8

36. The Unbelievers spend their wealth to hinder (man) from the path of Allah, and so will they continue to spend; but in the end they will have (only) regrets and sighs; at length they will be overcome: and the Unbelievers will be gathered together to Hell;-

37. In order that Allah may separate the impure from the pure, put the impure, one on another, heap them together, and cast them into Hell. They will be the ones to have lost.

38. Say to the Unbelievers, if (now) they desist (from Unbelief), their past would be forgiven them; but if they persist, the punishment of those before them is already (a matter of warning for them).

I've repeatedly tried to have meaningful conversation with you, querying you about why you don't live in the Middle East, the status of the Middle East relative to the Western world, Operation Iraqi Freedom, your calling the treatment of Palestinians "genocide" despite their ever-growing population and living standards, and several other things besides. In each instance, I am either ignored, have my view mischaracterized, am told my evidence is evil propaganda (with no backing to such claims), given an Al Qaeda-sounding speech (like this post I'm quoting; and I'm serious, read the transcripts of bin Laden's words and you two sound more than a little similar), or directed to shitty Youtube videos.

Therefore, it is a complete waste of time to have a substantive conversation -- I'm not sure you've ever had such a thing about international politics -- and will instead have fun mocking you and eliciting more diatribes.

Debate is where we post positions, information, etc..., you don't believe in that. You believe in slandering Islam and Muslims. Just ridicule. Look at yourself. You just posted that idiotic jewish commedian 'achhhmmeeed' (jew accent) photo.

Then there's the fact that you turn your face when the crimes of your government are mentioned. Where are the memorials for the million+ you have killed?

You are a hypocrite, double standard driven, evil intended rubbish individual.

Now you're putting words in my mouth? Calling me al-qaeda even? Didn't you tell me in another thread to 'suicide bomb myself'. Don't you see what a fool you are?

You have no intellectual merit only hate. If you are out for justice you would look first at the crimes you are committing against the muslim world, but again as a few of you mentioned you 'dont care'. Well whatever curse beholds you, you deserve it. Shame on you.

And you are a sick man, if you think palestinians 'growing' is 'evidence' that there is no genocide. You are a sick man.

There was barely any Jews in Palestine, then they suddenly exploded with populance? What happened? I guess that's what you think, but I thought they were being 'oppressed'? Oh wait that was hitler not the arabs be they muslim or christian.









Anyways this thread was about your deppressive suicidal soldiers who are taking their lives because they become mentally ill from what they do abroad to innoscent people. When you continue to do evil, your whole body, mind, heart and soul is overcome.

I would ask you to identify which of ahmed's views is true. As far as I can tell they tend to be emotional and dramatic claims that are difficult to empirically evaluate because they aren't even asserting facts. The few that do are plainly wrong, as when he calls the treatment of Palestinians "genocide," even though their population has burgeoned since 1948 and is set to experience a major boom. This is by definition false as "genocide" simply means to systematically eliminate a population.

Also, ahmed apparently resides in a major Western power that is entirely complicit in the "crimes" he regularly rails against, contributing tax dollars to that country's support of America's oversees operations. He is thus complicit in kafir imperialist ventures by helping to pay for them, giving his rants on the evils of the West an ironic undertone.

Regarding his lectures on the superiority of Islam, he lives in the West even though Sharia is being implemented to varying degrees in a variety of countries around the world. He can choose the place that implements Sharia to the exact degree he thinks is legitimately divine law, yet instead cowers in the West and enjoys its public goods and other material benefits. Again, this gives his Islamic rants yet another tinge of irony and shows where his heart really is.

Ahmed thus instantiates Kufrul-Nifaaq, Kufrul-Istibdaal, and, I'm sure if we dug deep enough, Kufrul-Istihaal (in other words, he is a huge hypocrite). No wonder he incites such reactions!

Youtube videos do not constitute evidence, and the Palestinians aren't facing a genocide by definition, i.e., in virtue of what the word "genocide" means. I'll attribute your continued confusion over the matter to English not being your first language rather than a less charitable explanation.

Spare me the bullshit semantics for someone ignorant that belives in CNN and FOX and what the american government says.

Even if its not systematic rapid genocide like that of the nazis what they did to jews or what the serb cetnicks did to Bosniak Muslims or Croat catholics does not mean it is not genocide. IT IS a systematic eradication of a people, in population, deportation, deprivation, humiliation, destruction of homes, theft of land, etc... and for 50+ some years. BY ANY means necessary.

Somehow hitler didnt' get away with 'check points' and 'security fences' but the israelis can?

Security this security that, that's what all tyrants use to enslave populations.

Anyone with an ounce of history will realize a people who came with a
'bible in one hand a rifle in the other' and proudly say so, proudly celebrate their creation of terrorism, are not a people of peace, not a people of God, they came to systematically take over the land of the original inhabitants and to RETAIN IT for themselves by any means necessary.

Israel was created through terrorism and it is maintained through terrorism. Deception is but a tool

Israel even FUNDS ex-soldiers to go on internet forums, chat rooms such as IRC, etc... etc.. to BOAST pro-israeli views, they get PAID to lie in the name of israel and to demonize those who expose Israel for what it is. That's how LOW these people go to cover up what they have been doing in the last 50 somje years.

Zionists even resort to COMPUTER ANIMATED videos to FAKE attacks and victimhood... yet will try to cover up any time they kill or bulldoze palestinians or palestinian homes.

SICKNESS, these people are SICK and they are what they are. Not all jews are zionists and not all zionists are jews. Scum are zionists they can be any race.

Somehow hitler didnt' get away with 'check points' and 'security fences' but the israelis can?

Security this security that, that's what all tyrants use to enslave populations.

Anyone with an ounce of history will realize a people who came with a
'bible in one hand a rifle in the other' and proudly say so, proudly celebrate their creation of terrorism, are not a people of peace, not a people of God, they came to systematically take over the land of the original inhabitants and to RETAIN IT for themselves by any means necessary.

Israel was created through terrorism and it is maintained through terrorism. Deception is but a tool

Israel even FUNDS ex-soldiers to go on internet forums, chat rooms such as IRC, etc... etc.. to BOAST pro-israeli views, they get PAID to lie in the name of israel and to demonize those who expose Israel for what it is. That's how LOW these people go to cover up what they have been doing in the last 50 somje years.

Zionists even resort to COMPUTER ANIMATED videos to FAKE attacks and victimhood... yet will try to cover up any time they kill or bulldoze palestinians or palestinian homes.

SICKNESS, these people are SICK and they are what they are. Not all jews are zionists and not all zionists are jews. Scum are zionists they can be any race.
