Snip:
More and more US troops deployed to West Asia are expressing doubts about fighting in the war against Iran, including having to “die for Israel,” the Huffington Post reported on 23 March.
A veteran and reservist who mentors younger officers told HuffPost that troops she speaks with are expressing a loss of faith after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu helped push US President Donald Trump to go to war against Iran.

Interviews further revealed that troops are worried about inadequate protection from Iranian ballistic missiles and drones targeting US bases in the Gulf region.
“Getting random indirect fire is not the same as watching the entire gym and coffee shop and some dorms get blown up from a door less than 50 meters away,” said one service member.
That only became your point after your previous arguments were shown to have no bearing on reality, and it’s also a point no one here would argue with. We all agree that systemic roots need to be addressed. We don’t all agree that troops should be given a free pass for being child murderers just because they selfishly saw a way to get free college out of it. We don’t all agree that troops deserve more empathy than their victims. We don’t all agree that class traitors and counterrevolutionary wreckers should be coddled instead of purged. You can’t make all these absurd, reactionary statements and then just say your only points are “that systemic roots need to be addressed.” Wildly disingenuous.
