Ok so what happened to the American way? "We'll stick a boot in your a** it's the American way"? This is a very contraversial topic but I am going to dive head in and try to swim. We sent troops over there to fight a war, which we did. Now listen real quick. I am all 100% for killing the everyone who was involved in the planning, and had anything to do with the attack on America. But this war is no longer in Iraq. It is needing to be faught in Iran, where we are currently being threatend, and Afghanistan, where Bin Laden is believed to be. Instead we have our military men acting as police officers, which is not what they are first and foremost trained for. 

    Another question, Why the heck is our military such panseys? I am almost ashamed to want to enter into our Army. What the heck is up with our battleships complaining and whining to our government when a speed boat threatened to blow them out of the water. You know what should happened when someone threatens our military, or our country, or for that matter any innocent lives? They should have a quick and swift bullet in their head. Or in this case our battle ships, which did nothing, should have fired on the threatening ship. Say that the boat did fire on our ship, while we were complaining about this we would have a torpedo heading for us and then we would not have a chance to do anything. Then the people who are saying oh we have to wait until we are fired apon would be saying why didn't we do anything about this earlier. If we wait until we are fired apon that is too late. We hardly need to wait until we are given a mean look, that is when action should be taken, especially in a time of war. It is a lot easier to ask questions when people are dead. 

    I say that we stop having our fighting men turn into polic officers and let them do their job and get out. Now I am not politician or military man but as a teenager in America and in the world at this time I am forced to ask these questions. Rome did not become a great empire by sitting around and having meetings, they did it by killing everyone who opposed them. Same as the Egyptians, which I might ad were around for over 3,000 years. So they did something right. I am not saying that we become Natzi, I am just saying that we assert ourselves as a nation. Yes blood will be spilled but you better believe I would rather do something that is a little wrong to protect the entire nations good. If that means we shoot first then ask questions fine, at least then we won't have to worry about speaking Chinese in a few years.

 

What are your thoughts?

well all i have to say is that, regardless of what the situation is, you can NOT become great by killing people. some deserve to die, yes. but you can't just go all trigger happy on someone because they threaten you. it would not be the same with you if you threatened someone and they shot at you just for saying it! but this is just my opinion because....well, you asked.

I would not threaten someone unless I could back it up and if someone shot at me I would expect it and would welcome it if I were the one to threaten someone. If someone threatens me I tell 'em to throw down because chances are they won't do it and I will if don't.

Being on the Forensics team at the high school, I've learned a lot about these kinds of issues in Iraq, Iran, and other countries. As far as I'm concerned if we leave Iraq, then they will build back their government. This is strictly a political issue in Iraq now. Iran is indeed a problem too, but the nuclear power thing is just an assumption. America just needs to keep on good terms with Iran. But I totally agree with you, whatever happened to the American way?

The Rome downfall came when it was ruled by emperors who were so "full of pride" and felt that they were gods and should be worshipped. So my question to all is : Who alone is worthy of your worship?
