What amazes me is that people can't see that this is unlike any other war.
They want to kill us, period. No questions about it, no surrender, no quarter. They don't want our land, our riches, our information. They want our LIVES!
If we don't kill them, they will keep killing us and keep killing us until we are no more.
While I agree that at the moment there isn't a clear specific target, we can target those that have been proven to support such actions in the past.
Targeting Bin Laden at the moment without concrete proof of the latest attack I would agree is wrong. Targeting him because we are pissed off and we KNOW he has attacked us in the past is just a good excuse to kick his ass. I'm for it.
I don't think anyone that disagrees with this war would still disagree if it was your hometown that lost 6,000+ people. Think about where you live and what area would have to be lost to lose 6,000 people. I can tell you that I have a lot of friends and family within that type of radius.
So to answer the initial question, would I go? Yes. Would I be a worthwhile infantryman? No. Too many problems prevent it, not to mention I am past the desired age. But I would go.
This is our home and it has been invaded, we have to defend it. The attacks will NOT stop and are not over. We have to finish it.
I've been robbed at gunpoint in my own home, shot at, stabbed and whatnot. You tell me that if someone held your family at gunpoint and possibly even harmed them, you wouldn't want their ass for it? Right. And if you sat back and let it happen, then I have many questions about you, that I do NOT want answered.
This is no different.
