You don't get weirded out when that rhetoric gets pushed?
I feel sorry for the troops as individuals - they get it even worse over here than they do there... But I could never support huge decision of getting into a war or invading a country halfway across the world just because they have valuable things under their soil...
The peolle that really fight for freedom, honestly, are the ones that are fighting to protect their homes from foreign invaders. That's true patriotism. Getting on a plane from a pesceful country to go on a tour of duty blowing up the third world isn't heroic, it's not patriotic, and it takes money away from communities and puts the spoils into a tiny fraction of super rich people's hands... Tuned have never been more corrupt than they are now, and modern war is right at the forefront of that corruption.
Its weird to me that in 2020 with so much information out there at the gouch of a button that people still believe the lies and propaganda they get spoon fed...
Scary times for the observer.
