Question

wars are fought,in part,by soldiers who are reluctant and conflicted.

Answer 1

EXTREMELy important: the Draft. that means, ANYONE the age of 18 that is male Has to go! even if he didn't sign up for it, even if he has other goals in life, etc etc.....that in itself creates relunctance and conflict.

think about it: some people sign up for the army cuz they can't wait to fight for the country. some others sign up cuz they THINK they can't wait to fight..but then become conflicted or relunctant due to human nature, getting scared, etc. some people sign up to just get away from their parents, or no money, or to pay for school, or to be paid by the govenrment to fight.....so it's not "for the love of my country", it's for monetary compensation and benefits..

loads of relunctance and conflict in there!!

Answer 2

Yes they are, most people do not sign up in the military to go to war, although they know that it is a possibility. Everyone has there own thoughts about war and why we are in it, but they are still there and they still have to fight even if they believe that it is wrong or that we are there for the wrong reasons.

Look at this war, some feel that we are not fighting for anything other then oil, and approximately 2.5 American soldiers loose there life every day that we are there, that just makes no sense to most.

Answer 3

Wars are faught by soldiers, but they are Egineered by Polititians and Corporations. Soldiers are merely
pawns. who in too many cases must give up their lives in a most unpleasant manner or they may become crippled beyond repair. War is in fact, nothing more nor less than "Mass Murder". It is all for money and power.
