Military - August 2006

US soldiers gang rape and then brutally murder and burn 14 yr old Iraqi girl and her family. Was this an isolated and their for excusable actions of a few or typical white conquest over indigineous people of that region? We've seen this before with the native American. Your thoughts?

I was in the Military late 80's and never faced war. I would like to express my gratitude to our soldiers who fight for our freedom by putting their lives on the line. Good luck to you all and I hope you return home unharmed and victorious. Thanks

If there were to be another World War Ithink it would probably start in the Middle East.
Do you agree

Those who are pro war and anti war are both passionate about their stance on the subject. Why? Is war nothing more than industrialized murder. A way to kill masses with striking efficiency and precision. We all agree that murder is heinous however if you give it the label of war it suddenly becomes ok. Innocents killed is easily passed off as collateral damage. In my view war is the worst of all possible human actions but I want to hear your thoughts and arguments. Is war industrialized murder or noble fighting for one's homeland?

SEEMS to me war meant taking over a land or territory and controling everything in it .
WHAT has happened to war .
WE battle and attack and then we leave .
This makes no sense to me and we need to keep what we take .

It seems more often more Canadian soldiers are coming home in boxes as a result of the conservative party and its policy on Afghanistan. Did the voters of Canada actually expect this comittment of Stephen Harper to aid and increase our activity in this conflict and are the deaths worth it.

I mean people are saying hizballah fired missiles at civilians but the death tolls say a diferent thing. Over 70% of israelis killed are military compared to 10% lebanese killed involved in either the army or hizballah. Also they have found evidence of the use of cluster munitions and incidery (not sure if i spelt it right) bombs in Lebanon both being banned by a 1980 agreement. Alsowhy arent we blaming armerica for supplying israel but are blaming iran for supplying hizballah

Well;because of something which i call it mental war you think we are terrorist! But you'd better know that the worse terrorist on the earth is your governments! They are killing muslim people in thier country and call it protection for peace and who wants to defense his country is called a terrorist . isn't funny? Please don't pay attention to your news sources and see the facts. WHO IS TERRORIST? Why your governments don't let us to have nuclear energy in a peacefull way? Why they give nuclear bombs to terrorit Israel? why they call hizbollah terrorist while this group is just trying to save it's country? Why they are backing Israel? Please give me a reasonable answer.

I am considering joining the Army, and if I do will begin as an E4 (college degree). My preferred MOS is 98X, meaning getting stationed at Ft Ord for DLI training in Chinese or more likely Arabic. I think I'll be at DLI for about a year with either of those languages.
I have a wife and 5 month old daughter. Up until now, we've both had to work, but how possible would it be for us to live on my E4 pay and benefits? I do expect some decent bonuses (enlistment bonus, college grad, high demand MOS) but don't know when those show up.
My wife is really freaked out about my possibly joining up, but it would be worth it to us if she got to stay at home with our baby.
Also, she is an elementary school teacher. Does anyone know what DoD teachers make? Is she better off (if she does work) looking for a teaching job off post?
Any advice would be swell. Thanks!

It is always heard or seen that Israel air strikes hit civilians, and Israel army are claiming that Hez. Guers. are using civilians as shield. Up to now no physical evidence is presented that will prove that Hez. are using civ. as shield. It is well known that whenever Hez made their attacks, 90% of the victims are millitary. But the story is different on Israelis' attacks. In the previous days, several attacks were carried by Israel millitary and that the whole victims are civilians mostly females and children, no single corps of Hez army can be seen among the vics. What I understand is that Israel is carrying its attacks on all lebanese not Hez. But i don't know others views.

Do you think the terrorist will tell you the truth?

I was just wondering for those of you who left the service, what are you doing now and how have you adjusted, whether you enjoyed the service to your country or not.
