Correct me if I am wrong, but if soldiers go over to another country we can't fire on them until we are in danger of being killed (fired upon) right? With that said unless anyone here was there in Iraq, we are not the ones to say if its Self Defense or not! Sinse you got out in 2001 you and I wouldn't know if we were fired upon first. However the argument could be made well I thought he fired at me, or well it looked like he was going to kill me, but hey like I said earlier, If they were killed invain, and christians killed them without them hearing about God, then they will answer for that. Also it can be argued that we were defending our nation, as isn't it considered treason and / or insubordination to disobey a lawful order given by the President? No I dont feel that its right, however you dont see it on CNN, so I really don't think soldiers were trading pictures of the dead for porn. Again as said earlier, Photoshop comes to mind when you mention this.
Now to another point:
Also it says in the Defense of Others:
The people in Iraq were being tortured by there leader and that is a well known fact, so it could be said that we were acting in the Best Interest to DEFEND those people being oppressed by there Government to give them the opportunity for life!
Also have a good day, i should get back to work now
