Check my other question for more details. To make this short, why does some people choose to become a merceary? I can't pictures how the life could be good at all. Yet my grandfathers and father did it. My son doesn't know they were a mercenary and he's doing the same thing they were doing. Why is it like this for them?

Other things that really bother me is my grandfather and father who survived everything end up suicide when they were too old to be of any service. We believe they did it becaue they weren't happy to be away from battle field.

Why do nuclear blasts cause electric failures? I've seen it in many movies and assume that it happens.

Lets face it, its easier to count what America has done right, rather than what theyve done wrong.

From Bush to Rumsfeld. Then onto the generals in the field. I dont think anyone can particularly hold their head high in the last 5 years. Do you think America is going to have to start building bridges to repair its international reputation since the general opinion even amongst its allies (Britain included) is that America has generally made a mess of it.

trying to flush out more American troops who are not usually around when the attacks take place? I ask this because American troops are being used as back-up rather than being on the rather non-existent 'front line' where all the killings are taking place.
Obviously these killers in Iraq do not care about human life. But it seems rather strange that they would be willing to kill so many of their own unless there is an underlyng reason for doing so BESIDES religion.
Thus the question remains unanswered. Are they doing this as a last resort being to flush out more American troops!?

To my brothers and sisters in arms, Thank you, I'm a retired Marine and thought you would like this, God Bless.

Two things to know before you read below: Marines are taught 1) Keep your priorities in order and 2) Know when to act without hesitation.
A Marine was attending a college course between missions in Iraq and Afghanistan. The professor, an avowed atheist, shocked the class one day when he walked in, looked toward the ceiling, and said loudly, "God, if you are real, then I want you to knock me off this platform. I'll give you exactly 15 minutes."
The lecture room fell silent and the professor began his lecture. Ten minutes went by and the professor proclaimed, "Here I am God - still waiting."
It got down to the last minute when the Marine stood up, walked toward the professor and threw his best punch knocking him off the platform and out cold. The Marine went back to his seat and sat down.
The other students were shocked and stunned and sat there looking on in silence. The professor came to, noticeably shaken, looked at the Marine and asked, "What the hell is the matter with you? Why did you do that?"
The Marine calmly replied, "God is busy today protecting America's soldiers who are protecting your right to behave like an idiot and say stupid stuff. So He sent me. Semper Fi.
