Military - April 2007

... do you think that THEY might tell us what they consider to be "support?"

Gee, now there's a concept: reinstating freedom of speech under the Uniform Code of Military Justice instead of allowing self-serving politicians to "speak for you."
Right now, soldiers can be court-martialed for expressing displeasure toward the commander-in-chief or various other leaders. Does that sound "American" to you?

When he gets back he is being relocated out of state and wants me to go. But in a about 6 months to a year HE wants to relocate again. My question is if I move with him, and we end up breaking the lease, will I be held liable and have to pay a fine? Or because I am living with him in a relationship they will overlook it?

My husband and I will be getting out of the military this summer. We have heard of two options. We heard that the military will hire professional movers to move us home free of charge OR that the military will reimburse us 90% if we rent a U-haul and move ourselves. Are both of these true? Does anyone know any other options? Does anyone have a suggestion? It's time for us to figure this out. Thanks!

Isn't it true that the U.S. is the only country in human history to actually use a nuclear class weapon against civilian population?? Isn't it also true we have the largest nuke stockpile in the world? Isn't it true that Iraq did not provoke our invasion? That being said isn't it only logical that Iran is legitimately threatened by the U.S. and in the presence of iminent threat it is just and moral for a soveriegn country to arm itself in an effort to protect itself and it's citizens from possible invasion?

Yesterday, 182 civilians were killed in one day in Iraq by madmen.

Since the US led war, they have continuously been killed by crazy people everday.

6 times more people died in Iraq yesterday than in V. Tech. Not that the people dying in V. Tech was not sad, but why does it get more attention thatn 182 PEOPLE killed in Iraq?

By the way, I'm not conservative or lib. Just answer the question

The Iraq War, to me, was the removal of Saddam from power in Iraq. The Iraq War was making sure the Iraqi government would not supply WMD's to any terrorist group.

The Iraq War was won back in 2003. What we have in Iraq now is a battle in the Global War on terror, not the "Iraq War."

We have terrorists and sectarian terrorists killing each other far more than they are killing Americans.

We are there to help the Iraqi government take a firm grip on its power and provide security for its own people. After all, we removed the dictator who kept them in check with murder and intimidation, and now his minority is not happy.

We owe the Iraqis that much.

Reid is way out of line to say we have lost the Iraq War. He has no idea what he is talking about, and does nothing but encourage the terrorists.

I wrote some hand written statements for a waiver to be granted or denied, for not mentioning a misdemeanor charge(theft under $300) from 1998, at MEPS when I swore in. I leave for basic on June 26. I have been waiting for a month to know the response from my recruiters CO, as to whether my waiver will be granted, and if i am still leaving for basic. Finally he calls me, and says."Antonio they kicked back ur statement, because there are a few things they want you to take out of ur statement, so u will have to rewrite ur statement"...So i will stop by later to do so, but what does this mean?? They never explain anything. Will my waiver be denied or granted?

The American left is demanding a withdraw and failure in Iraq. They want America to fail so they can blame the right and gain political ground.

But why do we coddle the mission in Iraq to please this American left that wants us to lose? Why do we allow political decisions to effect what must be done. We must close the border with Iran and that will include jets killing anything on the border that moves. We must level areas or neighborhoods where uprisings occur and that means killing the people that live in them. The left minded means of a politically correct was is a simple means of defeat. We can't we stomach victory instead of a politically correct defeat?
