We know the Iraq war is wrong. Why are so many young people joining the military now?

Answer 1

No, you think the Iraq war is wrong. It is a mess yea, but that doesn't mean we aren't working for good things over there. Some people want to fight for their freedoms, maybe one day you will be lucky enough to understand why they would do that. If you want to know more feel free to email me.

Answer 2

i imagine that they received't go because in the previous even as there wasn't a wrestle with Iraq happening we believed that the protection rigidity turned right into a good occupation an section to benefit an section to get knowledgeable and be a proud soldier assisting his or hers familys yet now that we are at warfare many many a lot of persons are suffering to the point the position there are too many deaths.the warriors are also very youthful dealing with such issues as killing others and seeing others being killed thats allot to flow by way of and the justifications that they are at warfare are literally no longer ideal by way of the more youthful era they could particularly go by way of the merciless cases attempting to live on the lives that they stay than to have it end so early ,now to not teach, that there kinfolk's are outraged that it hasnt stopped .there loved ones arent coming homestead and thats the reality of why the more youthful ones do not pick to flow.they pick to stay longer to love longer to have those memeries consisting of your spouse and youngsters, issues that once they're taken away ,you are able to't get lower back.

Answer 3

You _think_ that the war in Iraq is 'wrong.'

Most of us who have been there (and seen what the news media is not telling you) disagree.

Maybe you should be asking yourself why the people who do not have to rely on the news media for information about Iraq disagree with you.

Answer 4

Who's "we"? I'm in Iraq and I don't think its wrong. If the news would report anything that's happening here good, and not just the number of servicemembers killed, everyone might have a different opinion. Young people are joining for the same reasons that generations before them joined for: A sense of honor, a willingness to fight for their country, to be a part of something bigger than themselves, college money, good benefits, steady paycheck, cool uniforms, you name it, I've heard it. Someone has to do it, and I highly doubt it will be you.

Answer 5

Because the military is a great career opportunity.

I love it.

And if you don't have military experience and don't understand the military, then you will never understand it, because you probably only think of one portion of the military, and that is combat operations conducted by infantrymen set to a "I wish this was the 60's again" theme.

Answer 6

Some believe in a sense of duty, especially when you consider all those who died for this country since its inception. Others want career opportunities or the college tuition assistance so they can later better themselves.

Answer 7

Because it is something you would never have the character to do. You should thank those who join to serve and protect the rights that allow you to stay home and sit all day listen to Al Franken and complain.

Answer 8

Who is this "we" stuff? The war in Iraq is right and is needed!

Research the matter yourself and quit parroting others.

Answer 9

We, who? Don't speak for me. "WE" do not know the war is wrong. You THINK the war is wrong. Other people think either the war is what we needed to do, or that, even if it is wrong, we need to see it through to completion.

Answer 10

not everyone who joins the military is going to go to a war zone....why doesn no one understand this???
