Why do they Die: Memorial Day


i would like to thank the soldiers who protect our country as well. but how much of it is protection, how much other reasons:
  • 370,000 of them maybe permanently deployed to over 150 nations, mostly in rich ones like Germany and Japan
  • a military industrial complex worth the defense budgets of the next 20 nations combined
  • empire building
  • spending so much on a war on terror when other nations don't, and we haven't even found bin Laden
  • illegal wars, and war profiteering
  • increasing our nation's deficit when the war was to "pay for itself"
  • killing more Americans than were killed on Sept 11 in waging a war under false pretenses
  • killing tens of thousands more innocents than were killed Sept 11
  • increasing anti American sentiment world wide and increasing anger, self defense, insurgency against us
