I've always been anti-war(this one anyway), and my brother in law spent time in Iraq and Kosovo. I'd love for someone to come up to me and say that I don't support our troops.
I don't blame the people doing what their job is doing. My gf's sister is in boot camp right now and her husband is a vet from several wars. They don't all agree with what we're doing, but they have to do as told. One of the purposes of boot camp is to take away any free will and turn you into someone who can kill on command, no matter how distasteful, unethical.
