Your friends are the ones squeezing the triggers and making live bodies into dead ones. If the war is unjust, then their actions are immoral. And THAT is the message you and those like you send EVERY TIME you make such statements. THAT is the message received.
Troops aren't concened with your political extremism, and/or one-sided points of view. They're actually pretty quick to pick up on things. One being that by calling the war unjust, you are in fact calling them murderers.
You cherish your right to dissent so much, but with that right comes the responsibility of your actions.
If you put even ONE doubt in the mind of even ONE troop that what he is doing is immoral, that causes him to hesitate for even one second, either he or someone depending on him is DEAD, and you have surely killed him just as if you pulled the trigger yourself.
No, i think those REPUBLICANS, WHO TELL THE TROOPS "there are people back home that don't support you!~"
They are the ones being immoral and putting this idea into the troops head.
Its a totally different situation down the ground, i understand it. Why would I blame our troops for defending themselves in hostile land?
Not THEIR fault they got sent there, alot of times i feel like IM responsible for them going there, I knew the truth. So i feel like goin over to protect our boys.
And you don't need to be a jerk about it.
