Yeah, being an unpopular occupation army is never fun. Especially when your leaders told you that you were going to "liberate" Iraq, not colonize it. Lies are demoralizing too I guess.

The troops don't have a choice, though. They're getting shot at. They're defending themselves. They're not sick bastards who kill for fun. Would you let someone shoot you without firing back? This is just the sad reality of war. Pinko fucks.

The troops don't have a choice, though. LOL, yes they do. There isn't a draft. If they are really opposed to invading and then occupying other countries then they should leave the US/British military (dissert, go AWOL, frag their officers, etc).

Well, I dont really feel sorry for the American troops over there. After all, is their career choice. If they dont want to shoot and kill people, why the hell do they sign up for army??? If my country would like to invade another country you could count me out, but for defending my home and family, then I would be there..
My sympathies goes to the civilian victims of these kids shooting at everything that moves..

Having wrecked a country that was already in bad shape and reduced the civilian population to absolute misery, I don't see how any American or British soldier can expect anything but absolute hatred from every Iraqi...a hatred that they have fully earned.

Fuck those mercenary bastards! I hope the Iraqis kill every occupation soldier!

It will serve them right!

:cool:

U.S. GET OUT OF IRAQ NOW!
