Policy is not benign. Look at some of the suspicions around 911, look at some of the suspicions around Al Qaeda, look at the lack of WMD, look at how Gaddafi suddenly went from friend to foe, look how 10% world trade goes through Egypt (Suez). There is a pattern, and it's called: power and money.
I'm not being judgemental or having a go, I'm just saying think about it before you come back with your leg blown off, full of resentment about how they lied to you about what you were doing.

derp. Exactly the same as above. There's an obvious difference between 'murder' and then the accidental killing of innocent people in a war situation, that war itself being started with the intention of a freeing a population and saving countless lives. You should show more respect to the armed forces mate, I've met some of them, and they have more balls and dedication than anyone on here - get more women too!
