I know a lot of service members are getting upset about the people in America who say that peace and talk are all we need to stop all the violence, in truth we should be proud that they believe that. That means we are doing our jobs correctly, we are shielding our people from the true horrors of the world we live in. if we didn't do our jobs well that would make them be at high alert at all times. I am proud to say that I carry that burden so they don't have to. I would rather be at high alert for the rest of my life so that my countrymen can sleep peacefully at night.

That's how I feel about it, how do you feel when people say that peaceful means are the only way?

We need to be ever vigilant. The attitude of pacifism is going to get more Americans killed.

Sgt (Join to see) we as a country must maintain a vigilance and make a stand against the horrors of freedom and our way of life. Lets advocate peace, but we must be able to defend America when called upon! United we stand, divided we fall!

That is true. We have to see eye to eye with our civilian counterparts.
Thank you for your input.

In a way, you are dead on right. Our military and intell groups have been doing an outstanding job of keeping the ugly problems of the world off our doorsteps. I don't think it is good that they underestimate real dangers though. That is dangerous.
