Thank you, soldiers - Page 4

This is a thank you thread, not a debate thread or a thread to criticise soldiers or the regimes they fight for. If you do not heed this warning retribution will be swift and without mercy!

I'm a very anti-war person. But I do feel it's great to honor the soldiers.

It's pretty stupid to blame soldiers for wars. You should be blaming those who are telling them to do stupid shit for no good reason. Soldiers are just doing what they believe is the right thing to do. Someone needs to be doing the job they're doing. The guilty are the ones fooling them. Not the ones being fooled.

It's not up to the soldiers to decide which wars to go to. It's up to the people to vote for those who decide that. If you disagree with the war. Then stop voting for corrupt people instead of blaming on soldiers.

Any soldier of any side of a war deserves the respect for being brave to do what only a few would.
Great people talk about ideas. Average people talk about things. Small people talk about other people.

My father served, I have friends currently who serve. I thank them today because the least they deserve is a day. Try not to be a jerk in the thread and enjoy abit of nationalistic pride for the people who thought dieing and fighting for you would be a more solid idea then anything else.

Rest in peace, all who died in this horrid war, including all Taliban and Al Qaeda defending their country.

Once you stop "criticising soldiers or the regimes they fight for" they deserve it at least as much.

Violence does not make the world a better place. However, there will always be a need for a military as long as the capacity for violence exists. If every country drew down their military, one country would keep theirs and take over the world. Its just the sad state of human existence. As many have said, you don't have to support the war but you can support the troops who keep war away from your doorsteps.

I don't endorse warfare, and i sure as hell don't endorse soldiers who kills innocent people. But for all the true honest and honorable soldiers actually died doing their job. Salute! R.I.P

If it wern't for your sacrifice, we would be living in dark times. Some wars are neccesary, some arn't. No matter how neccesary the war is, the ordinary men that fight it are all heroes in my book.

I would like a war which no soldier attends
i would thank these then

but its such a difficult topic to discuss
violence is obviously never the answer
however
without it there would be even more?

i dont get it t.t seriously
but people which risk their live to fight evil and obviously not those raping and abusing
thanks

Edit: Apparently its all the rage to criticize and hate the soldiers though. Jesus this thread scares me, this is the generation that will one day run the world too. One of the reasons I hate this forum is its full of dumbfuck kids who think they know everything from the internet and have an inflated sense of worth and intelligence from their sheltered worlds. Fuck you, show some respect for those that deserve it. I'm not worthy but I'll never sit on my ass and make blanket criticisms because too many have given up too much for my simple freedoms





War! What is it good for? Absolutely Nothing!

Thanks OP for helping us to remember those who have selflessly given their lives; and please remember, too, the mothers and fathers and sisters and brothers, who will never again see their loved ones.

War is a crime unless it is necessary for self-defence. All I feel for those who died for the pursuits of their leaders is sadness, as their lives are wasted for ambitions of a group of man.

Having a "holiday" like this is a shame to the humankind...

Celebrate that we're a species of barbaric folks... Cheers to the few soldiers who "do it right", it's unfortunate that many don't.

I love all of the hatred in this thread that was created simply to thank those who have served and are serving their respective countries whether that is the USA, Canada, or Korea.

Fuck everyone saying this holiday is "pointless" "stupid" or w/e

Kudos to all the honorable soldiers out of there, from any nation. Regardless of the politics involved, putting yourself in harm's way for the sake of others is always admirable.

Soldiers make a tremendous sacrifice for the nation. The constant moving, the time away from friends and families, and the long, often exhausting hours of duty are some of many prices paid for the safety of the country and it's people. Regardless of beliefs of policy, those serving honorably deserve respect and thanks for everything they've given. I'm proud of my friends in family in the service, and wish them a speedy return home.

Making this a "nationalist" thing... that's one of the causes of war to start with. Let's remember these people and what happened without making it about pride or nationalism.

Judging people in this thread for their acts under such absurd and to us exceptional circumstances just sounds wrong to me. This is about the loss of life, nothing else.

Yes. Especially the Germans, because they're worth at least 3 British or 7 Americans.

Apologies if this counts as "debating" but this annoyed me a lot.
