Honestly, I could sit here and talk hyperboles about making sure you keep your freedoms and rights, etc. But I won't.
While we could argue about the validity of the ongoing military operations throughout the world, I won't.
The fact is, this country's military it a tool wielded by the American democracy. Nothing more, nothing less.
What matters is that a select few individuals are willing to put their
lives on the line for whatever this country deems necessary.
Whether you believe what the military does has merit is besides the point.
The military doesn't make policy, it just follows it.
