I think war should be an absolute last resort and don't support war unless its completely necessary. If I had come of age back then, I would have been one of the first to sign up.
World War II was a necessary war. I don't many people born after WWII can truly comprehend how much the course of human history would have changed had the Nazis won. Most of this site's memberbase simply wouldn't have existed had the Nazis won.
Ummm....no. The war on terror is not even close to the seriousness of what WWII was. Thousands of people died over the past seven years on grounds which were not only questionable but illegal.
Says who? You? Please prove it was illegal! Thats your opinion whether the threat is real there were plenty of Americans that did not want a war in Europe or against the Axis. Pearl harbor is the only reason.
Less people died on Pearl harbor than on 911 yet somehow its less of a threat? I wish I was smoking what you are. The threat is far greater today internally against our society..
Yea theres no threat yet somehow tens of thousands have died and attacks occur all over the globe for a similar cause. Attacks are thwarted constantly. Over 32 attacks on the USA alone have been thwarted since 911 here.
Other attacks have succeeded across the globe all in the name of the Same mission..War never changes people just want to use different terms but its still a conflict its still war, Its propaganda, its military, its diplomatic, its anything and everything to win.. Our enemies attack us and attack us and we do nothing..
The Taliban even stated that they wont stop till the world is Islam there form of it.
The principal stated aims of al-Qaeda are to drive Americans and American influence out of all Muslim nations, especially Saudi Arabia; destroy Israel; and topple pro-Western dictatorships around the Middle East. Bin Laden has also said that he wishes to unite all Muslims and establish, by force if necessary, an Islamic nation adhering to the rule of the first Caliphs.
