Yeah the idea that soldiers wouldn't do as ordered isn't even worth entertaining, no offense or whatever (you already agree with me anyway based on what you typed after). That pretty much goes for all soldiers.

Not trying to be cynical or whatever, but militaries are generally composed of young, mostly men, and ones who had at least some notion of nationalism enough to agree to join, especially, obviously, in non-conscription militaries like the US. So, my point is, you give basically any nationalistic minded young man a gun or put in charge of some sort of murder machine and tell them "that's the bad guy. Go do the thing." And they see there have been effectively no consequences for decades for others just wantonly murdering... it's a recipe for "yeah, they're gonna murder."

That's why it's important to do whatever we can to keep the ghouls in the media and in Washington from ever putting them in the position to do the murdering. And also keep weapons from going over there. Obviously we have limited, nearly zero, say in the process, but I think people are kind of slowly moving towards "stop killing people" since it's all sort of out in the open now days.
