The object of war is not to die for your country, but to let the other bastard die for his.

That&#39;s a quote from Benjamin Franklin (at least i think it was him...) you see it every now and then when you get shot and die in Operation Flashpoint

What country would that be?

Revolution didn&#39;t work out for us in Iraq, as we had hoped.&nbsp; Saddam was just too good at what he does best.

Whats that? Running like a pussy?

Assasinate your head of state, or die for your Country?


Neil

P.S. : Conspiracy Theaoy?

I am against all killing. I also don&#39;t believe dying for your country makes much sense. Perhaps dying for your principles makes a little sense, if there is someone left to defend them.

Recently, a certain Pim Fortuyn, was assasinated in the Netherlands. I considered it an attack on democracy. I might add I was against many of his views. My democratic right to vote against his politics, was brutaly infringed.

There are so many crazy people running around, taking the law into there own hands, never looking inwards at their own faults. They, if caught, very often expect a fair trial.

With regards to &#39;the conspiracy theory" click on the following link.

I see.

Making such a statement would surely stay the hand of someone attempting to kill you, Nigel123.

Would you not act to save your own life, or that of a loved one?

Honestly, if that is your stance, I suggest you, and anyone who feels similarly, seek to exclusively populate an island somewhere so that the despots of the world might work out their angst and aggression by taking turns subjugating you and yours; and by virtue of this activity save the rest of us the trouble.

The U.N. could be in charge of scheduling.

This particular brand of naivete ought to serve some purpose.

I too am against all killing.

Just because it is (in a few very rare cases) a necessity, doesn&#39;t mean we have to embrace it.
