It was still an unconstitutional action on the part of the United States. We have no right to interfere in the internal affairs of other nations.

But did you believe in what you were doing? Did you believe that if you were killed, that it was for a good cause? That someone less fortunate would have benifited from your actions? Those are the core principles that I uphold that would justify myself risking my own life, or willing to take someone diserving's life.

I signed a contract and I knew when I joined the Navy back in 1981 that there was the possibility of going to war. The person who joins the military doesn't get to pick and choose which wars he is going to fight.
And what exactly does "diserving's" mean?
