Have you seen the movie Collateral? In the end he dies sitting on the train and no one will notice him. Thats what happens if everyone just care about themself.
Now, if this is innocent people dying, especially children, and you want to help them...does'nt that make sense? Sure there are lots of propaganda and lowlife wars because of oil and shit, but there are also wars like the one on Balkan. It was not in my backyard, but I could not ignore it either, so I served 6 months there. Sure it involved a risk and you can call that stupid if you want to. But in the end we all gonna die sometime and somehow, and I rather prefer dying "stupid" than as the coward that made no difference....
