I don't think so. The only times I think discipline is the answer is when someone needs to control their tight budget, know when to stop gambling, and refrain from driving while drunk.


Here are examples of why I think discipline is overrated,

1) Look at Stone Cold's rampage in the WWF during the Attitude Era. The only discipline he had was when he was on the football team in college. With discipline, he'd be too tamed and not as entertaining as he was.

2) Did you watch the movie "Major Payne" with
Damon Wayans? Do you remember the scene when that boy's stepfather was about to hit him and almost did if not for Major Payne stopping his hand? The boy was TOO disciplined because he wasn't even gonna defend himself.

3) Did you ever watch "The Lords of Discipline"? Do you remember the first minute of the movie when that guy was SO disciplined that he marched like a little sissy?


SOME discipline is good, but WAY TOO MUCH. Just look at examples 2 and 3 again there...

If congress can let 58,000 men and women die in vietnam, and then just stop the funding for the war and say OH WELL, no more money, have to go home now.... but not to worry we will send Henry Kissinger around telling everybody WE WILL HAVE PEACE WITH HONOR IN VIETNAM, he got the noble peace prize for his great work???? question is, will our great congress do the same thing with iraq? or blame the people of the U.S. saying they didn't want vietnam and they don't want iraq any more either......have to worry about my re-election you know.......is there some logic to this??? or is it better to lose 5 or 6 thousand soldiers then 58 thousand....will the world think better of us for losing two war's....what do you think....what's going to happen and what will the aftermath be??

For my Sixties in America humanities class, I have to do a project comparing the treatment of veterans coming home from Vietnam and veterans coming home from Iraq. I wanted to know if there was anyone out there that could shed some light on this? I am looking for academic information pertaining to benefits, such as the GI Bill was after WWII, along with the opinions of the public regarding the veterans returning home. Any appropriate links would be appreciated! Thank you!

I don't mean to sound selfish but I just really feel directionless right now and I want to know from those who have or are currently serving how either branch of the forces have benefitted them. Has it given you direction or motivation for other interests and career pursuits in life? I am 28. Am I considered too old to start now?

Article 51 of International Law argues against preemptive strike.

Since we all know now the false inteliigence, and all the other actions taken that led us into a war on IRAQ, anyon can see there was no WMDs that would constitute a preemptive strike.
And talks of a preemptive strike against Iran are the same -- since there is no direct evidence that Iran poses a threat to U.S.

So, should Bush stand trial for violating International Law, and being responsible for the deaths of 4000 americans, 30000 wounded and hundreds of thousands of iraqis dead, wounmded and left homeless?

THERE'S "startling" and "stunning" news of a "hidden epidemic" of veteran suicides. So claimed CBS News in two reports last week.

Most of the airtime went for heart-rending interviews with wives of vets who had killed themselves. But CBS also provided statistics that it said showed that "veterans were more than twice as likely to commit suicide in 2005 than non-vets."

Problem is, we have absolutely no way of verifying the CBS data nor how the network claims it collected the info. CBS News admits to collecting the data itself, rather than relying on an independent outside party. It also concedes its rate is "much higher" than that in an uncompleted Department of Veterans Affairs study.

So somebody isn't telling the truth. And the evidence is overwhelming that it's CBS.

Back to LT Watada.
Hes a good example.
And until they convict him of anything, he is not what people call him.

EVERY SOLDIER HAS A MORAL OBLIGATION TO QUESTION IMMORAL ORDERS.
And because LT Watada is not being treated as someone found guilty of the orders brought upon him, shows The Military Courts agree with his objection.

So how can anyone try to argue that?

Could it be that thos that say, a soldier shouldnt get to pick and choose his wars, are the ones who wouldnt have the courage to stand up and question such an Immoral order?

My husband is scheduled to go overseas, and we are having a new baby. The main problem is I am due right around the same time he is going over. I was wondering if there is a way out of him going, at least for a few months? He is afraid to ask his NCO because he just got to this unit a month ago, and don't want to seem like a bad solider.

He is currently in the National Guard, and was able to stay in despite the felonies. He is currently serving in Iraq, and we've been told by a lawyer his chances of pardon are good. We don't want this to ruin the rest of our lives. They where both non-violent crimes (1 count of Breaking and Entering Auto, and 1 Count of Forgery; More than $1,000 but Less than $5,000). When, and if, pardoned, could he join Active Duty Army?
