    The brainwashing only intensifies once they get to boot camp. But I take your point. I’m not trying to excuse the military, just saying things are complicated.

      The problem is that after their mass murder campaigns the “leftie soldiers” complain about not getting enough compensation for doing mass murder.

      They also spread the notion that the military should do a better job at killing armed resistance fighters and not just women and children, instead of realizing that the armed resistance is justified and US terrorists have no right to kill them either. As if a random Iraqi in the US can just walk up to a US soldier on a base and shoot them in the head and claim it’s “self defense because he was armed”.
