Granted the order is probably not always followed but the procedure is to duck for cover and instruct bystanders to leave then return fire. I know I sound cruel but hey, its the truth. And we provoked Osama Bin Laden? We helped the fucker with his problems with the Russians and never bothered him again. BTW, I can tell your liberal, because it glares off your words perfectly. I think it's sad you have no respect for the people that probably made your life possible. Without them we have fucking planes going into towers everyday, we have drug wars, we might not even be a nation, and we certainly wouldn't have tranquility in our own homes.
Your emotions are clouding your judgment.
You sound like an idiot, I'm sorry. "These people" didn't fly planes into towers any more than I bombed Japan in WW2. A handful of people claiming to be Muslims did that, plain and simple. Extremists shouldn't represent a nation, nor should it represent a whole class of people.
The Middle East tensions are most definitely provoked by US policies, and to claim otherwise is ignorance. That's not to say that any form of terrorism is justified, but that goes two ways. It's not right what we've done over there. Our policies bring shit back on us, and that's not just a liberal position. Libertarians will tell you the same thing, and they are as conservative as it gets.
No, we wouldn't have planes flying into our towers everyday, that's just a stupid statement that has nothing to do with the military operation over there. That's a domestic security issue, not a military operation. Drug wars? We have that. Ask anyone from a border town near Mexico, the drug war is killing plenty of people.
Listen, soldiers aren't to be blamed for this, don't get me wrong. They are doing what they feel is right, the only way they know how. The problem isn't them, it's the leadership that dictates what they do, and where they do it. We weren't attacked because people were jealous of our freedom, we were attacked because we are in way too much shit over there.
