Im glad your alive but i see no reason to thank you for volunteering to fight a illegal war to neuter the middle east for israel.
It's true that this war is a bunch of bullshit and there is really no noble cause behind it. Yes, we are there fighting for Israel, and to plunder resources, destabilize the region, and muscle in on drug money among other things.
But I still think most US troops are allright people. Most of them see it as just doing their job.They are part of an evil machine, but they aren't really consciously aware of it so you can't blame them too much.
But i'm with you. I would never join the US military these days. Way too corrupt.
