| Registered User | Officer refuses to go to Iraq komo news | Fort Lewis Soldier Says He'll Refuse To Go To Iraq This really pisses me off. I think this guy is just a candy-ass pansy. He probably joined the military just to get free college and never actually expected to have to defend his country. I hope he gets court martialed and spends some significant time in a military prison. I bet the other soldiers in his unit feel this way too. And what is this crap about an "illegal" war? How can this war be illegal when Congress authorized it? He must think American policy should be dictated by the United Nations |

| ego killer | they mean something when someone actually voices it. you'd be surprised at the number of "injuries" that are suddently acquired right before a combat situation that makes them undeployable. sure, it's a job and he signed up for the duty. but i ask this: would you risk death for something you don't believe in? 155lbs incline dumbbells x 9 To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 0 or greater.

| I Know Nothing!! Board Moderator | Well, I never thought this war was a great idea, however if I were a service member I would perform my duties to the best of my abilities..that's what you swear to do when you enlist. There really is no way around that IMO. A soldier does not have the luxury of picking and chosing their battles. They can question or refuse orders that are not legal, but outside of that..ya gotta roll when told to. I AM watching you. Pirate, Poet, King of Despair. |

| Banned | When you signed up, you signed up to fight the country's battles and to obey the chain of command. You don't sign up to join only the battles that you believe in or to obey only those commands you agree with. If you can't live up to that, then don't sign up. |

| Banned | Everything in life involves choices. And the choices you make, have consequences. You don't get to pick and choose what you like, out of a chain of events that you initiate by the choices you make. That is life, like it or not. The military will not be able to function if the soldiers are to decide, on the eve of battle, if they are going to saddle up or to sit out this one. Men like that, do not belong to the warrior elite. |

| ego killer | good point. but would you rather have your back guarded by a nervous friendly with a firearm who is already confused as to why he is there? there are a lot of consequences to consider here that are not being looked at other than "fulfulling his duty", which is true - he should fulfill it. but not everything is so black and white. 155lbs incline dumbbells x 9 To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 0 or greater.

I have to say though, that it is not a soldier's place to decide whether the war is just or not. | |
