Let me guess - the military is full of heroes, and they deserve nothing but respect and can do no wrong, right?... there's nothing noble about war. I have friends in the military, and they went into it with a very "gung-ho, America!" attitude. Now that they've been it for a while (about 15 years) their attitude has completely changed. They can see through the BS now. They understand that the military is primarily focused around personal agendas. They love being marines, but not the actions of the military. [i]“War is a racket. It always has been. It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives.” [/i] - Smedley D. Butler, MajGen., USMC
