It is not the enlisted man who fucks anything up, as I am sure you know there is a chain of command. No Sgt. ever started a war. Props to you though man and thanks for serving!

Completely unrelated and uncalled for, no matter what your beliefs are.

And the military has a continuous humanitarian mission, my Psychology instructor did nothing but airlift food and clothes to poor parts of the Pacific for 3 years.  The military is not the government.

the military is an instrument of policy makers, it doesnt make policy. 

why do you think soldiers are issued extra rations of candy bars before they're deployed? so they can give them to little kids.  gtfo america's men in uniform are some of our best.

If i'm not mistaken...arabia is a country? as in saudi arabia?  doesn't the saudi part just refer to the ruling family, and that changes when dynasties change?

but going to war isn't an 'illegal order'  You sign on that dotted line, you have too go. You (not implyingYOU personelly) knew full well you would get sent to the fron't lines, an illegal order would have to be straight up execution.  Or many other things a long those lines.

OP good for you man. It show's that marines do more then blow shit up.

No. Saudi Arabia is a country. Saudi does not refer to the ruling family. The current king is named Abdullah ibn Abdul Aziz - not of the Saud family.

So your not Arabian but you just use it as your ns name because you thought it would be cool to be arabian. Well its not, in fact most people hate arabs. And if your not arabian why do you know so much shit about saudi arabi?

Why do people have to announce to everyone else that theyre doing charitable work? I mean, if youre going to do it, good for you, but do you really need to tell everyone so they can all tell you what a nice person you are?

Nevertheless, this whole thing started because you were trying to call down some genuinely nice guy who is going to Haiti to help out with the crisis they're having and just wanted to let people know what he's going to be doing for the next two months. You had to go ahead and be an asshole and try to state something that doesn't even apply to this thread.

Marines are evil guy. They kill babies and don't afraid of the consequences our Lord will reap on their souls. They are only responsible for bombing and killing innocents.
