The military does not get to decide which wars are valid and which are not.
The military does not get to decide whether we remain engaged in War A or B or whether we do not.
The job of the military is to execute national policy.
I agree, but accidents happen. Kind of like the Democrats being here
The Constitution does not require him to fight in an Unconstitutional war.
I am sorry about Chris Kyle's death , but he was no hero serving in an UNlawful war.
Ergo, suck my rod.

What a fucking idiot....what the hell is going on? Did all of you idiot lefties take your stupid pills today?
He will receive a fair trial, sentenced accordingly. Frankly his conduct was deplorable and could have well jeopardized the lives of his squad. In the event he wanted out avenues were available to pursue his removal from action. But then again through the eyes of those that have no respect for honor, country, and commitment this is a foreign and hard concept to comprehend.
Since Confusedatious doesn't care for our war with some of the Islamofascist scumbags, ergo, to his way of "thinking [sic]" it is perfectly ok if a member of the military engages in the crime of desertion.
Ya can't make up this stuff. That level of dumb is not unusual for many modern American liberal guests posting here at USMB. But Confusedatious is a standard bearer for their unique imbecility.

I find it humorous that a con who is wrong on almost everything would call anyone an imbecile. Do not take that to mean that I agree with the op.
Joe
Are you suggesting the Army took their time with them, like they did charging Bergdahl?
Looks like the fact that they took their time is possible after all, shooting down the whining about him not being charged with desertion immediately that we are hearing from the left.
Thank your for your service.Let me ask you this, Joe.
Have you served on active duty as a member of the US Armed Forces?
If 'yes', can you enlighten us with a few details (branch, timeframe, duty station, MOS, etc.)?
Yes.
Army. 1981-1985 as a reservist, 1986-1992 Active duty. Lots of different places. MOS 76Y30. Rank, Staff Sergeant.
After the Gulf War (which my unit thankfully didn't get sent to) I got out because I saw that we had pretty much gotten roped into a war by the Zionists and Oil Companies.
Joe
If you can agree that probable cause exists, then the case should go to trial
Bergdahl will get a fairer trial in a court martial than many Americans get since the military doesn't use their courts as a source of revenue, like many civilian courts do.
Thank your for your service.
You may very well have drawn the wrong conclusions about the Oil Companies.
We re-took Kuwait to deny Saddam an ability to interdict oil shipments - an action that benefits the nation at-large primarily, and only secondarily benefits the corporatists.
We re-took Kuwait to calm the Saudis who were pissing in their pants at the prospect of Saddam holding a major bay and seaport on the Gulf.
We re-took Kuwait to make Saddam understand that his second-rate military wasn't good enough and that his opponents had the balls to stand up to him.
You may also very well have drawn the wrong conclusions about the Israelis (Zionists, as you call them).
Israel did not benefit substantively from the re-taking of Kuwait, nor the de-clawing of Iraq, given the lack of a substantive threat on the horizon, and the SCUD missile barrage.
I have never seen (nor heard of) credible and substantive evidence that the United States re-took Kuwait, motivated in large part by Israeli interests.
Apparently, you have an inside track that many of the rest of us lack.
Joe
If you think the Army is lying, then I have a suggestion. Have a trial and let them present whatever proof they have. THAT should settle the issue.
Or are afraid the facts won't match your version?
Sorry, but Federal Law requires a trial in a military court. Besides, NO U S civil court has jurisdiction over any part of Afghanistan, so any such trial would be illegal and a violation of Bergdahl's constitutional rights.
So, it looks like a court martial is the only option.
Unless you want to claim that any of our troops overseas shouldn't be subject to any court, freeing them up to become lawless thugs if they want to
Your replies are getting predictable. I could write them for you. It also seems that you are the only one defending this traitor. Give it a rest.We did, indeed, push our people far too hard, with those multiple deployments. Nolo contendere. We should never have gone into Iraq in the first place. And we should have been in and out of Afghanistan within six months.
But we didn't do any of those things. Because someone was making a huge profit on it. And when working class kids stopped playing along, the Army was reduced to recruiting people like Manning and Bergdahl and that guy who shot up Ft. Hood. Well, actually, there were two guys who shot up Ft. Hood. And this is just what we are hearing about.
JoeThis could be transferred to a Federal Court, and it probably should be.
Actually, what they should do is give Bergdahl a discharge and a profuse apology.
