On the other hand I can so understand that kid as well....
I have seen some very very very light combat in my time in the german army nothing I would say comes close to anything these guys see on a daily basis....but, even than when I came back home I couldn't believe how people could attack us for beeing at that place and doing what we did.
I thought of them as extremly egoistic that they judged me without knowing what excactly I did over there.
These Guys are in combat, they are under a lot of pressure and of course propaganda, it all looks a little different when you see people die and bullets fly.
I'm fully ok with bashing these War horny fucks in the Government...ANY GOVERNMENT....because they are ALL lying cocksuckers, i'm not ok with bashing young guys and girls who "have" to go over to fight a war some guys have started.
Let's not make the same mistake america did when the veterans came back from Vietnam, all boys and girls from the warzone coming back need help.
They are as much as the insurgents human beeings, trapped in a artificial situation created by a couple of rich fucks who thought it was better to do to war and who think the lost of life is neccesary to get what "the rest of the world needs"...
Fuck the US Government, fuck the german government, fuck the british government fuck them all.
