""They are required to act as killing machines, forbidden to think or express their opinions on the actions they are involved in.

Who in their right mind, would encourage their children to join the military to save our brave "liberal democracy".""

Unless things have changed in the last ten minutes, I believe the British Military Services are 100% volunteers.

I can't recall a single reference, anywhere, anytime, to people volunteering for slavery.

Our soldiers could indeed be better supported, but to call them slaves is to debase the service they render to all of those who stay at home and talk a good fight.
