90% of those boys over there are between the ages of 18-20, I'd bet, and at that age, they don't know what THEY are doing at that age, much less defying their orders/superiors. They are just babies themselves. I hate this war and I hate everyone calling ths shots in it, but I support those boys 200%. Keep in mind their ages and try and remember when you were that age. I am 42 now and I remember thinking I knew everything and I was invincible and so on, but now looking back, I realize I didn't know jackshit at that age. Those boys ARE doing what they are told and they are scared and alone, without their families...... don't abandon them because the government has put them in this situation, that makes you no better than the men telling them what to do.
I have a 17 year old son and almost daily I have Military people calling me wanting to recruit him. They say he signed up for this and so on, and I know better, my son is SO not a fighter, and he wants nothing to do with this shit. They are fishing and they are in the wrong fishing hole because they will play ALL kinds of hell taking my son into that shit. I may have been out of line, but I told the one that called from the Marines that I'd blow both his kneecaps off myself before I'd send my boys over there.
I support those boys, but I don't support this war or anyone guiding it.
