Thread Name: BS: Should the US troops be thanked?
Subject: RE: BS: Should the US troops be supported?
Of course the troops should be supported.

What they volunteered to do was serve in the armed forces to protect their country which is presumably your country too Mrrzy.

They did not volunteer to go to war, if asked you might find that rather a large number of them would rather not be in a combat situation, they however do not have the luxury of choice. If ordered into combat by the Government that you elected they have to put themselves in harms way, and they do so on your behalf.

If you believe in the Christian faith Mrrzy, and if you are a citizen of the United States of America you can count yourself amongst the more fortunate human beings on this planet, and you can be assured of the following. That the only person who has willingly laid down their life to protect your life, and your way of life, other than Jesus Christ is the serviceman or woman that you say you are unwilling to support. The small mindedness and ingratitude of that is unbelievable.
