This is part of the attack on the honour of our military and its history for partisan political purposes which has had me so infuriated on this issue over the past fortnight.Scotianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06284856315992405261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6708375.post-8258569210428199672007-05-04T14:08:00.000-04:002007-05-04T14:08:00.000-04:00I've always supported the troops; I have a very po...I've always supported the troops; I have a very positive impression of the professionalism of the CF. But if we continue to Americanise the forces by romanticising militarism and sending the Forces into pointless empirial adventures and treat the whole thing like a video game, we're going to end up with another Somalia or an Abu Ghraib.<BR/><BR/>I hope Rick "Scumbag" Hillier is paying attention.Ti-Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06620550471437012866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6708375.post-45634601124813948202007-05-04T13:31:00.000-04:002007-05-04T13:31:00.000-04:00At the same time, I'm feeling fuzzy warm with the ...At the same time, I'm feeling fuzzy warm with the military people on the ground in at least that case. They didn't let it slide. They didn't shrug and walk away.<BR/><BR/>I don't know what the higher ups did with it, but the frontline people have my admiration for walking the talk. A definite "I support the troops, but the troops are not the mission assigned to them" moment.Nileshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04096047389811381098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6708375.post-88346919668016702772007-05-04T09:41:00.000-04:002007-05-04T09:41:00.000-04:00I'm going to go full-metal wingnut and blame the s...I'm going to go full-metal wingnut and blame <I>the soldiers.</I> If those namby-pambies can't handle the brutality of this, the Most Glorious War of This or Any Other Generation, then they shouldn't have signed up.<BR/><BR/>The wingnuts will eventually disgrace themselves into exactly that kind of "fuck the troops" rationalisation.
