I Don't Believe Soldiers Are Heroes

Just To Add To This...
thought i'd might as well make a story about it considering its just getting filled with crap.
the point of this group was orginally that people who join the military aren't automaticly heros. you have to earn it first, soldiers have dont terrible things and good things. some do both. as well as that, you could say that a hero of one place is a criminal and a villian in another place.
the government starts wars to further there own intresets for themselves.

No I am completely open minded about this. I can see it both ways and I in fact do. On a personal level, I couldn't and wouldn't sign up for the service. Nor could I be with someone in the services. My sister's husband is in the nat'l guard and right now he is in Kuwait doing absolutely nothing. I don't even get why the hell he is there!! They goof off all day. Hell that could of saved tons of money by leaving them here instead of putting them out on this said mission. You can ask him! He doesn't even understand it but he had to go..

Anyways, that is what I am trying to get at when I state "support troops but not war.." That is how I view it. However I can see how it can be viewed differently.

Everyone makes excellent points in this thread.
