Israel has a policy where all citizen have to serve in some form in the military...do you think this is a good policy and should America adopt a similar one?

I guess only a parent could answer this question so here goes :)

My son will be arriving home for exodus on the 20th. I had planned to make a big to do about his arrival at the airport, balloons, signs, the whole family, but I've heard differing opinions on whether to do this or not. My work associates say to not draw attention to him when he arrives, as he will be tired and cranky from his trip, my family think that I should pull out all the stops and give him a "hero's" welcome. I'd like to hear your thoughts.

HEartstrings if you see this, i just saw your edit to my last question. I actually didn't find you really, more like saw your answers to prior questions and they stuck with me :)
Looking forward to hearing from you...how did you fare in the blizzard of last week?

I was thinking of joining the military once I graduated college and becoming military police. I was told by several people that having that on your resume when looking for a police job can boost you past many other qualified candiates. If you are a military cop do you serve in war and travel like regular infantry? Any information on mp's would be great. Thanks in advance!

My brother is 29 and wants to join the armed forces...he says he is willing to join any branch. He was a hockey player in college and has had several surgeries on his shoulder and knee. He has been denied in the past to enter the Marines due to his past injuries, but I don't know how selective the other branches are compared to the Marines.

How many people will honor our fallen? And how will you do it? I hung my flag and am watching the movie "Pearl Harbor". Let us not forget that Pearl Harbor was the Twin Towers of the 1940's.

Babysit the country until Iraq can stand on it's own two feet (which is never.) Introduce democracy to a country that has been run under dictatorship for over 20 years and pray that it will be successful in less than 5?

Muslim aggression and wars of conquest are what caused the Crusades. The Crusades were wars of self defense, just like Afghanistan and Iraq today. How come so many are so uneducated in the truth.

Arlington, VA— A town hall-style meeting, meant to open dialogue between al-Qaida operatives and local Washington area leaders turned into a complete disaster Wednesday after several of the radical Muslims, who were flown to the U.S specifically for the debate, began shooting participants and setting off bombs when their poor English skills prevented them from getting their point across.

"It seemed like a great idea at the time," mediator Ted Koppel said afterwards from the Fairfax Medical Center where he was being treated for shrapnel wounds. "We thought, why not see if we could find some common ground with those people who seem to hate us most."

According to witnesses, there didn't seem to be much common ground from the onset, as the confused Arabs --who have spent the last 18 months holed up in a trench outside the Tora Bora mountains on the Pakistani/Afghanistan border --began screaming and waving large rifles and threatening to explode the suicide belts wrapped around their waists.

"I was really really scared," said Arlington resident Pam Sprague who had just asked the the panel if they could each elaborate on steps they were taking to bring about peaceful solution to their longtime hatred towards each other.

"They didn't even answer my question. They shot the guy holding the microphone. Then they started screaming 'Allahu Akbar' over and over and tossing grenades. They were obviously very frightened and angry."

The gunmen finally calmed down during a trust-building exercise when host Ted Koppel instructed Arlington Councilwoman Anne Soffe to let herself fall blindly backwards and into the arms of the al-Qaida panelist, who was sure to catch her. He didn't.

While the town hall meeting was considered to be total disaster by most standards, both sides agreed they would return to the table sometime in the not-too-distant future.

"The channels of communication are now open," Soffe said. "I have every confidence that should I fall blindly backwards again, one of those men will not try to shoot me."

I'm going to be joining a military service, and I want to know which one people recommend the most. Such as the Navy, Army, Air Force, Marines, etc. Some insight would be greatly appreciated and would help in my decision.
