I'll be 21 by the time I'm out (If I get in..). Considering people live to roughly 90 or so... I think I'll be fine. The benefits when you're out are insane. __________________________________ Go play in traffic. Thx. Luv ya.

But the Australian people, and people from all over are pretty eager to stop terrorism. Aren't you? If you're not your an idiot tbh. Joining the military doesn't mean bang bang your dead.. There's also reconstructing villages over in East Timor. There's the helping out of Bali when they had the Tsunami etc etc. [QUOTE] Adam said: so you are doing it for what can be summarized to be selfish reasons rather than any sort of patriotism? I haven't just rushed into this because I'll get lots of moneys.. That's plain idiotic. I've thought about the negatives and positives and imo the positives way out weigh the negatives. You meet many friends for life (Sure you get that anywhere, but none will have experienced this). You lean many skills for life. You're guarenteed a job when(if) you leave. Once out you'll appreciate life more, probably. It's endless really.. __________________________________ Go play in traffic. Thx. Luv ya.

If you're not your an idiot tbh. 1. What terrorism? Compared to the number of people killed in combat (read: soldiers like the man you intend to be), deaths through terrorism are small. 2. Do you actually think you can stop violence through violence (on somebody else's home turf nonetheless)? It is a commonly touted statistic (and no, im not searching for sources; it would take too much time to be worth it) that terrorism and discontent with western civilization has increased greatly since the west sent troops 'to fight terrorism'. I honestly believe that people en mass would do a better job fighting terrorism if none of them joined the military, and so did not give their governments the resources to cause discontent for irrational reasons. (or for that matter for the sake of profit through oil, or power through a frightened populace) __________________________________

Xplicid Member Joined April 2007 Posts: 56	Okay okay. So you're arguing we shouldn't be at war with Al Quida? And that we shouldn't have invaded iraq to get Saddam? Sure. Iraq was illigal. We (The Americans, anyway.. But we shouldn't have followed) should never have went to Iraq. If we were going to get Saddam we should have stepped in a lot earlier than how many years after he did all the stuff he got hanged for. I'll give you that. We're retreating from Iraq very very soon, anyway. But, going into Afghanistan, after Osama had admitted he'd done 9/11 is all good in my books. The Afghan government weren't content on finding the rebel Al Quida, and their leader - Osama Bin blah blah Laden and prosecuting him. So we did (went in search of him). And no, we haven't found him because he's probably skipped over to Iran or Iraq. That's why we're still there. We don't give a fuck if the country have a government or not and if they are able to vote. They'll work it out if they want too. The war against terrorism (Allah even..) will never end. __________________________________ Go play in traffic. Thx. Luv ya.

'We don't give a fuck if the country have a government or not and if they are able to vote' - You'd fit well in the army :). __________________________________

So how will joining the military help fight terrorism if its adding another terrorist to its ranks in their eyes? __________________________________ Kyle Baker Wanna be Programmer, Web Designer, Rockstar

He denied it for some time, and then gave very subtle hints to him being involved, and then.. Came out with it. It was all over the news. Those videos he released n shizzle. I'd find it for you, but I really can't be bothered. You seem to have your mind made up and there's no way of changing it anyways 2. Skipping from Afghanistan to Iraq is quite an effort. [b]I said Iran/Iraq. Iran is right next to Afghanistan, and Iraq is right next to Iran. You say it's an effort? You'd do it to still be able to have two uncrushed testes - yes? Once crossed over to Iraq you're pretty much safe. You have all ways to escape (Except South West if it's blocked) but you can go in all directions and if you come to a roadblock, you can veer off - and dodge them. And you could even go back to Afghanistan. Also a lot flatter.[/b] 3. 'We don't give a fuck if the country have a government or not and if they are able to vote' - You'd fit well in the army :). They fucked it for themselves. They fix it themselves. It's like when two kiddies fight. Just lock them in the same room with no food for a week and they'll sort everything out. Might take a week for them to get the fact they aren't coming out - But they'll get there. ------ The American military that is currently stationed in Iraq are considered by many people over there to be terrorists. So how will joining the military help fight terrorism if its adding another terrorist to its ranks in their eyes? [b]I'm Aussie, AKA Australian. When the election comes round our PM will be kicked and Rudd will be put in. Troops will be taken out of Iraq, due to them not needing to be there. Rudd doesn't take it up the ass from President Bush unlike Mr PM Howard.. I've also said that invading Iraq was illigal. It should never have been done.[/b] (And I see you can't have italics in a bolded line. Fix. Apparently you can't press enter while you have Bold tags there, too. Fix.) __________________________________ Go play in traffic. Thx. Luv ya.
