An this kid who is joing the Marines when he turns 18 in about a year ask why do you think an old vet doesn't support this war? An I couldn't answer. But at least we know why were going to join. I am joining the military after I finish college. But the reason I am joining, and he agreed was we beleive that America has given us everything to make us who we are. We are able, and cable people who are now ready to give back to our country, and the people who make up this country, and defend there rights to freedom. An make sure other countries can be free. Agree, or disagree?

You are a true and great American i applaud you.
An added note for those anti-amercains
You are the microcosm of today's liberal Democrat. A, you don't recognize defeat when you want it. You can't deny they want defeat. They want surrender. They own it. That's exactly what this is about. It's so bad that the Democrats cannot afford victory to take place. But beyond that, you know what's really shameful to me and what is truly, truly disappointing is that you, an American, do not think victory is possible in this for the United States of America. If you don't think victory is possible, there's one opposite to victory, and that's defeat.
You think we can only lose. You want us to lose. You're telling yourself, you got your brain all tied in knots telling yourself, "No, no, no. This is not about defeat, not about surrender. We can't win. This is about securing Bush's legacy," and so forth. You think anything other than victory is going to secure any kind of a decent legacy for George W. Bush, given who writes legacies these days and who writes the history? You and people like you are truly frightening and sad and disappointing, and I feel sorry for you. When I actually stop to think that there are Americans like you, I get depressed, because you do not represent the traditions and the ideals and the institutions that have defined this country's greatness.
If you keep propagating (and you won't because of abortion) and you keep making more and more of you people who think the way you do, our country and the way it's always been and its future is threatened. If you people get your hands in total control of this country -- and you have yourselves convinced that we don't face an enemy, that we're at war with the enemy, that the enemy is only the enemy because we've made them mad -- we are truly in deep doo-doo. I go through this mixture of emotions of feeling sorry for people like you because you sound otherwise intelligent. You can speak and you can do so grammatically correctly, so it seems to me you ought to be able to figure things out, but you're so warped out there that it's frightening and saddens me. It's just very sad, at the same time.

Agree with your reasons for joining? Hands down. I feel the same.
I think a lot of people don't support the war simply because we no longer seem to have any clear objectives, or more importantly, the means to accomplish what we originally set out to do. Dissenting the war does not mean one lacks support for the military or their country.

Before you join the military, consider giving back to AMERICA and not globalist pigs who just want more money. : ) Join a local militia.
INVESTIGATE 9/11. Here's a nice place to start:
http://physics911.net/
Truth, not conspiracy: Science, FBI insiders, government workers, firefighters, police, and civilians believe that 9/11 was an inside job. Your country sit back and let it happen FOR MONEY, to FURTHER THEIR previous PLANS. We're there for a reason, and it's not public knowledge made available on your **** MSNBC sheeple-news. Don't be a mindless zombie.
Real patriots do their research.
