Terrorists go into other countries and kill innocent people to further agenda. Soldiers are sent to other countries and kill innocent people in the processes of carrying out their orders.
Explain how they're different.

Dude, please do some research, the information is out there for anyone who wants it. If you don't know history it's because you
don't want to know. The problems we're dealing with today are 100% from our doing.
You talk down on me for having an opinion even though I've never served in the military. Damn right I've never served, and that's because I was given ONE life and before I'd risk that ONE life to join a fight, I'd want to know what that fight is all about.
This fight is all about one thing - control of middle east oil. Period. If the middle east didn't have oil, we wouldn't even know where it was on a map. And in our desire to control that oil, we have supported the most despicable people that have ever walked the face of the earth.
The CIA supported, even encouraged, the most extreme Muslim fundamentalists to fight the Soviets.
We supported Gulbuddin Hekmatyar
We supported Osama Bin Laden
We supported Saddam Hussein
We supported the Mujaheddin
We supported the Taliban
How ironic that we're now fighting EVERY single one of these people and groups.

I only say "screw you" to those who ignorantly or willfully support a government policy which results in the utter destruction of the lives of innocent people in the name of securing oil. Both my grandfathers fought ACTUAL enemies, who posed ACTUAL threats to this country, and they both had my utmost respect.
People who run off to fight, as I said, some two bit dictator we put in power a few decades ago in some puissant country, and then compare their fight to those of my grandfather's deserve no respect in my book.

And I truly hope that you don't really believe that every order given by a government to it's soldiers has the best interest of the PEOPLE of that country at heart.

And what a poor upbringing you must have had to allow yourself to be so manipulated by your government. War is big business, big business controls the government, the government controls it's military. In essence, you work for big business, laying your life on the line so they can profit.
As ignorance is bliss and the truth hurts, for your own sake, I truly hope you remain ignorant.
