I hate some of the idiotd on here who keep saying there's no reason for us to fight.
There are places in this world where men are dragged out of their homes and told to rape their daughters and join those forcing them to do so or them and their whole family will be killed. If me and the planes I fix can help keep that from happening, it's damn worth it.
Whether you're American, British, whatever. ******* props to you man.

I don't understand the logic behind the idea that a lot of people seem to have that because you are fighting in a war, or because your father fought in a war, somehow that means that that war isn't a gigantic waste of lives and time. "It doesn't matter what stupid reasons we have for invading another country. Since I've been deployed, it must be a necessary war."

so basically your saying leave the taliban to You need to login to view this link sure your tune would change if one day you looked out your window and saw a mushroom cloud on the horizon.they will sooner or later get hold of a nuclear ICBM and we cannot sit back and wait for that to happen
User avatar #552 to #546 - badgerclan ONLINE (03/03/2013) [-]
you mean like all those nukes that we were sure Iraq had when they invaded that it turned out they didn't have? Ever stop to think that maybe these people are hostile to us because we keep ******* invading them?
#559 to #552 - myturntoevil (03/03/2013) [-]
They attacked the U.S First.We dident find WMD's in iraq,im fully aware, but how do you know they dident smuggle them out as we invaded and would you like someone like saddam to have WMD's at his You need to login to view this link personally on the fence about Iraq but there are countrys in this world that are so ill-advanced that modern day terror cells can over throw their goverments and defeat their armys and occupy their countrys
User avatar #491 to #382 - ltpraptor (03/03/2013) [-]
Wait, you're British? Dude, I'm pretty sure the U.K. hates the war in Afghanistan more than Americans do. I don't believe that my country (U.S.) should be in Iraq, but we have a solid reason to be in Afghanistan.
#514 to #491 - myturntoevil (03/03/2013) [-]
People that hate the afghan operation are people that dont understand it,they think we can really live harmoniously with these people (taliban).Iraq is a different arguement.If you put petrol in your car then you are not totally against the the invasion of iraq.
User avatar #530 to #514 - ltpraptor (03/03/2013) [-]
My country produces half of the oil we use. The majority that we import comes from Canada and Russia. Last time I checked, only about 7% of our oil comes from the Middle East.
#534 to #530 - myturntoevil (03/03/2013) [-]
we use iraqs oil first then once that has run dry we use our own reserves.i work in iraq as PSD
User avatar #537 to #534 - ltpraptor (03/03/2013) [-]
My point is that we are no longer dependent on the MIddle East for oil. We can go without it not easily, but for the most part, without much hassle. We have a reason to be In Afghanistan, as much as I don't like it. But we have no reason to be in Iraq.
#549 to #537 - myturntoevil (03/03/2013) [-]
but when your population is ever growing along with the rest of the worlds,you need to keep countrys with high oil reserves sweet because no country wants to be the one who runs out first
User avatar #450 to #382 - plainarcane **User deleted account** (03/03/2013) [-]
So basically, you're not even American, but you think you know everything about America's war because they handed you a rifle and sent you to the middle east.

Alrighty then.
#502 to #450 - myturntoevil (03/03/2013) [-]
I was in a unit called 4/73 special observation post battery,you must pass a 18 week arduous selection to serve with them,a course that would make your arsehole turn inside You need to login to view this link say i was just handed a rifle is an insult to my career and a demonstration of your counter insurgency and general military knowledge?have some balls and fire away.

Did anyone dress as clowns because they weren't expecting it?
#443 to #382 - haunterbrony (03/03/2013) [-]
I have only one question. I want you to answer truthfully.

Why did you decide the life of a military-man?
#471 to #443 - myturntoevil (03/03/2013) [-]
because your are born a blank canvass and the paints that are added throughout your life represent influence,and influence leads to You need to login to view this link one really chooses what they want to do,as no one can choose where they are born,they are just the product of influence.If i was born in a family which had a long line of political figures,my influence would mean i would probably persue politics because that is what i would be surrounded by and that would be what effected my choices.if that makes sense
User avatar #600 to #471 - screwyouman (03/04/2013) [-]
**** dude, that's deep, man. Did you ever consider a career as a poet?
User avatar #478 to #471 - denbaby (03/03/2013) [-]
******** and here's why. My mum is a college dean, and I have been surrounded by college my entire life. My entire family went to college. I live on a college campus, and work on a college campus. Literally, everything is about college. Just finished high school and now I can make my own choices. I'm leaving America to pursue culinary in Europe. Travel, cooking, and learning about new cultures is my passion. In this world you have choices to do whatever you want to do.
#495 to #478 - myturntoevil (03/03/2013) [-]
So if you was born in democratic republic of congo and had very little education and most of your day was spent avoiding rebel gangs that would cut your hands off and rape you, would you still of chose travel cooking and cultures.or do think it is completely relative to where you are born and your influences in your life
User avatar #570 to #495 - denbaby (03/03/2013) [-]
Think for yourself, and do what you do to get out of where you are from. No matter what the circumstances.
#572 to #570 - myturntoevil (03/03/2013) [-]
Its very easy saying that when you have running water and a supermarket over the road and electricity and the heating on.but you havent really addressed my question?in a nice way.
User avatar #575 to #572 - denbaby (03/03/2013) [-]
What do the Indians do? Tons of the come from poverty, and they still leave their home to go to school and work their asses off. The Mexicans coming into the US to work and send money back to their families. There are people like this ALL over the planet. I don't understand your logic. Do you actually believe these people can not benefit themselves whatever the situation they are in?
#588 to #575 - myturntoevil (03/03/2013) [-]
yes of course they can benefit themselves.you need to start at the source.these people who are going to the US like the mexicans, KNOW that the US has better quality of life.They know this because of media (TV,radio,internet) or through word of mouth, influences.if they lived in the middle of the desert and never ever saw anyone apart from their mum and dad and their mum and dad never saw anyone else and so on and so on through all the generations so there was absolutly no outside influence,and they never saw a tv or map or any demonstration of emerging technology that was more advanced than a spear,then these people would never know any ANY diffrent.they wouldent know the US existed let alone that it would present a better quality of life.Now introduce a man from the US to these people with a laptop and a mcdonalds and tells them about the US.The desert people see this and now know that there is some place better than the desert.they have been influenced and made a choice to move to the states.I dont mean to sound patronising but does this make sense mate
User avatar #487 to #478 - denbaby (03/03/2013) [-]
Regardless of influence.
#433 to #382 - anonymous (03/03/2013) [-]
If anyone had any of those questions, would you really be qualified to answer? Soldiers just follow orders, that's their job.
You could tell us about your experiences at the heart of the conflict, but I'm sure you could only speculate about its brain.

I'm just curious—do you think you're serving a just cause?
I'm not favoring one way or another, but I'd just like your opinion.
#521 to #421 - myturntoevil (03/03/2013) [-]
Yes i You need to login to view this link moral compass is straight and i can say without reservation that i do not want to share a planet with the taliban
User avatar #415 to #382 - ninjacowboy ONLINE (03/03/2013) [-]
Here is an honest question for you:
Do you feel that your deployment helped the civilians over there?
#456 to #415 - myturntoevil (03/03/2013) [-]
Our primary task is to train their security forces so they can deal with the taliban without the aid of western intervention.we are there to babysit,helping build roads and schools and medical aid is tertiary.the reason the taliban are there in the first place is because afghan is an easy place to overthrow,weak goverment,staggeringly corrupt police forces and a nearly non existent army so they can freedom of movemet to train and plan attacks and with close borders to iran and pakistan there is a huge acces to cutting edge weaponry.Just to address the collateral damage that happens,it is a bi product of taliban activity.they surround themselves with children so if we injure or kill one then they can use that as propaganda against us.you would not beleive some of the acts of selflessness some dudes (soldiers) go to save women and children.the key distinction between us and the taliban is that we recognise when we have done something terrible,the taliban take the kill the children first approach.
User avatar #414 to #382 - richardastley (03/03/2013) [-]
People don't think you're brainwashed. They think you're stupid. Not saying I think so, but a lot of people consider soldiers to be dumb jocks. I took a war ethics class and my prof told us about the education required for soldiers. I have some mad respect for what you guys are trying to do in Afghanistan, but I don't think it's ever going to work.
#529 to #414 - myturntoevil (03/03/2013) [-]
I understand.but you really need to ask yourself 'do I want to share a planet with an idiology like the taliban,who in the near future will have access to nuclear inter continental ballistic missiles' do you want to risk it?
User avatar #584 to #529 - richardastley (03/03/2013) [-]
I absolutely agree. If you guys weren't trying to do some good with it, it would be a much worse place, even if you just left after taking out the Taliban. Props trying to make something out of narco-state, bro. It's not easy business by the sounds of it, especially when the people in power are fueled by drug addictions.
#589 to #584 - myturntoevil (03/03/2013) [-]
We wont take out the taliban,we are keeping them at bay untill the afghan army is in a position to take over.Even if you or anyone else does not agree with it,it is an interesting experience.Its not a good idea to say everyone fighting over there is stupid,because you address the likes of navy seals, SAS, SBS, Delta and i will tell you these people are ******* incredible.they are cutting edge human beings that have done a crippleing amount of training to get to where they are and wether you know it or agree with it or not,they are looking after you.They are keeping that **** over there to stop it spilling over here.The probelm with this ******* world is religion without question
User avatar #590 to #589 - richardastley (03/03/2013) [-]
It's not religion, it's the misuse of religion. People act like it gives them some kind of a right to be an asshole. "I don't want my son to be exposed to gay activity, so those two girls can't go to prom together."

Also, I didn't mean to kill everyone involved in the Taliban, I just meant take it out of political power (which the Americans did in 2001).
#591 to #590 - myturntoevil (03/03/2013) [-]
so if it is the misuse of religion then to stop people misuseing religon is to remove religion.
User avatar #592 to #591 - richardastley (03/03/2013) [-]
Or to just educate them about common decency. Much easier and less hypocritical.
#593 to #592 - myturntoevil (03/03/2013) [-]
but educating them would mean teaching them facts about the universe which would conflict with islam,and they wont have that ,and we wont have that because it would mean being hypocritical of our own religions like christianity and judaism.they will not have it mate.they will not,they will fly planes into buildings before they read a book on evolution.
User avatar #594 to #593 - richardastley (03/04/2013) [-]
But when they're already defeated, as long as you can get the people to work with you, they will read a book on evolution. Look at what we did with Germany and Japan. It'll just take a lot more effort with place as ****** as Afghanistan.
#604 to #594 - myturntoevil (03/04/2013) [-]
You dont defeat insurgency,its a slow process of convincing any potential Al qaeda recruits and serving members,maybe everyone in the world, that the second you blow a bus up in london,you sighned a contract that you will never live a normal life.you will have to avoid contact with your closest freinds and family, live in hiding and fear for the remainder of your short life.Certain agencys will begin to track your every move and at some point and you dont know when,no matter where you are,a team of special forces are going to kick in your door and blow your brains out in your bed,or whisk you off to guantanamo bay for the rest of your life.Its about telling the world that it is not worth living your life like that.Japan and germany are diffrent mate,they where already advanced and intelligent,it was a black and white war.Nazism was a facist ideology that was intelligent but governed by an absolute pyschopath
