Military - November 2006

Do you think having a program on CNN with this title is acceptable ? They could have said 'politics after Rumsfeld'. They made Rumsfeld carry more that what he should. He is just a military person doing his job not a politicans. Why did he only take the fall for Iraq ?

I havn't been to basic training or anything like that yet, so, I was wondering if it were still possible to break my contract to join the airfore?

If not, it's just fine, I'll gladly serve these 8 years and then do airforce, but I just was wondering.

in america, even tho most ppl disagree with the war, they treat their armed forces with the upmost respect, and regarded as heros. in this country however they are slated and frowned upon by ppl who couldnt even do the job. they put their lives on the line daily for their poorly paid JOB. and get no respect at all. howmany other ppl can say they do that for a living? yet the same ppl go on to call them murderers! they work in extremely stressful situations and watch their friends die under rules of engagement that dont work only to be lucky enough to come home not in pieces or being carried off a plane in a box, to ignorant ppl who if a war broke out in this country would expect them to fight for them?

History is hard to understand. I am not an 8th grade whiner, but a college grad. Just when I think I understand something a whole other set of parameters appears. Sure they had blitzkrieg, but they had a whole lot of horses as well.

versus the amount of dead military personnel we get back? 40%? 50%? more? I keep on hearing about people who come back once, twice, & then are deployed again..... It seems to be a big secret. The news is more concerned with Brittney & Kevin than our military.

i know that he can't throw the u.s. military out of the military base at guantanamo, because the u.s. has some legalistic claim to it, and would put up a fight, but certainly the u.s. has no right to break the rules of the geneva convention there, and isn't it castro's duty to insure that international laws are not broken on cuban territory? why doesn't he bring it before the u.n.? is there some deal that we don't know about?

Is this situation solvable? Despite all the assurances that things are getting better, the carnage never stops. Will Gates have a better handle on things than Rumsfeld?

Do you think that if the war in Iraq became as drawn out as the Vietnam war that it would result in the same sort of counter-culture rejection of modern society type deal?

I'm 16 years old and have been debating what I want to do in life, for a while i wanted to work with computers with pc programming and other things, but now any branch of the military seems better. I consider myself to be intellligent, but doing the exact same thing everday is getting extremly boring. If I decide to acually join a military branch, what should I join? Any help is appreciated.

The conviction and death sentence for Saddam Hussein, handed down just two days before midterm elections in the U.S., was a transparent attempt to deflect attention from the crimes the U.S. commits--day in and day out--in Iraq.

When the Iraqi regime massacred the Kurds in 1988, the U.S. was silent--because Saddam Hussein was then a loyal ally, backed by Washington in his decade-long war on Iran. The U.S. supplied Iraq with the know-how and materials to make the poison gas that inflicted this horrible crime against humanity.

For these reasons the Bush regime should also be on trial in Iraq for the war crimes they have commited.
