Quote by: brien I don't recall this being in their volunteer agreement when they joined up of their own free will. |
To me it's irrelevent and I will explain shortly below

They freely gave up their choice when they signed on the dotted line. The right thing to do is to honor their commitment to the USA.

Then shouldn't the US honor their commitment in not sending them in Harm's Way for an unjust war?
Sacraficing one's life for oil, profits and political gains/losses, is not just, nor is it a valid reason to seend your people off to die and/or kill others who pose no threat to your nation. My explination is if you can not trust your own country to use your assets and sacrifices for something good, just and for the right reasons, then why should the government hold trust to these people to going blindly to their potiential deaths?

Nobody forced these guys to join up. They volunteered while the phony wars were already historical fact. They can't say they didn't know.
|
So they should expect to get screwed over by their own government when they join up? ok.... that sure will help them in having faith in the country they wish to risk their lives for.
I imagine most of these people figured the country learned from Vietnam and what happens when you try to start a war in order to change a government in another country.

There is no excuse for these guys. They made a choice that wasn't their's to make by going AWOL and now they have to pay the price. They need to get the courage you assign to them and return to the US to face the music.

Which apparently is going to happen.
