Only fools enlist for military service.

Yes, it's true. I said it. They are fools. Nothing more nothing less. Well, this might be a narrow and small minded statement, but so be it. So guess what, I don't support the war on terror. No kidding you say? Well I just wanted to make it clear to you.

Maybe I now should explain why I say what I say. Actually, is it really necessary.. I hope you've seen the news on TV or picked up the paper during the last 7 years. If not, we don't have much to talk about. But if you have been following the news I have to say that I'm shocked if don't agree with me. I can understand and also kind of relate to the support given to the war on terror 7 years ago, but not anymore. Look at the progress in the war? Or should I say the lack of progress?

What have happend? In the big picture what ordinary people are left with are the pain and hurt, shock and nausea over the 100 000 innocent sivilians and military officers being killed and injured during the war. I'm not saying that the military are doing everything wrong, but more harm than good are executed.

Maybe myfeelings are unreasonable, but I still stand for them. Am I wrong for not wanting more innocent people to die? Don't get me wrong, I'm not suggesting to pull all forces out all at once, but gradually. The point is not to send more soldiers.

Hey Marianne,

I see where you're coming from and I agree on some things. am glad that we have the military and things like that to fight for our country. I don't find anything wrong with people wanting to go into the military just because I know that they are going to fight for our country and to keep it safe. Yes, I agree when you say that some of them are fools. I have people at my school saying that they are going into the military and these are people who don't care about school. They are just there to be there I guess. Do you believe that we shouldn't have the military or anything related to it?
