i think we are but i also think that we are close to being
arrogant thinking we are in the right for letting our men and women
die for a belief that the USA is the standard for the world .

i think that s the wrong idea to have yes what we are doing is good
but i think we are doing more bad than good because we are loosing
more men and women than we first projected ,which bring me to
another point the government dosnt see us as people they see
us as statistics which is why we are still over there which s why it is wrong from that point of view.

i'm not an american or pro milatary guy and this is the way i see it. to me solders first came around cause of a need to Protect ourselves. now considering american's are sometime what i would say a fairly nosey country (and i can't say mine isn't either) and decides for itself which countries can and can not protect itself and decides to get involve due to the political reasons.

now honestly i am not the one sacrifcing myself here, and if u ask any military guy he will most likely anwser "yes it is right" because that is his soul belief, to protect and help other when they can not help themselves and being a kind soul they will not decrimate who is worthy enough to be helped.

however it is always different with different war or conflict that occure, some might need to be interfered with, due to the exualtions of the 2 conflicting sides and there need to be some buffer zone (i believe thats where the UN forces comes in). but in all we can be a bit nosey and some things would be better of without our interferance even if we might think it right. cause who know we might end up doin more harm to the people that we are helping than good.

It depends.sure u can sacrifice the ppl 2 protect a certain thing or land but i reckon dat is something dat should b limited becoz ppl can get arrogant in the fact they r more"honourable" for doing the "right" thing.

Sacrificing ourselves for something right?....true, however it doesn't strictly mean going to war. Although war is one of the sacrifices, there are others that may not lead to death.
Sacrifices are made for all sorts or reasons, ranging from honor to love.
Different people have different views on sacrifices, in a way there could be those who believe having sacrifices in war is something important, for others maybe not. War itself is dangerous, yet there is always a gain from it, therefore many would risk anything to get that.
To me, i disagree with the whole idea of war, risking lives for a greedy intention. As much as i want war to stop completely, there is nothing i can do, as i don't have the power to.

mainly i agree with you, people..
we maybe sometimes need to protect our precious by a fight, but not always by a fight.
is it helpful to help others?
yes. it is helpful if we can do it. i mean we have the power and the time to do it.. shortly the ability to do it.
"help other means help your self.. "
i think this is right, because by helping others we feel better..(again if you really have the ability to do it)

[quote]is it really necessary to go to war? offering soldiers to the dead? [/qoute]

i just want to say that we should not be the one who start war or any destruction things like that (e.g. using the political power to surpress other because we do not like them)..
just like other martial art basic education..
"power is not for fight, but for protecting"
we need to run our forces if we are really need to do it in order to protect our self...

i do not like any war with other human because it is very suffering..because the true enemy is not human, but satan.

the only one we always need is a war with satan that always trying to pull us into the sins. that is the one we need to fight.

I think it could be right but it depends on what you sacrifice yourself for like God, country, etc. But I also think its alot of pride also...

I know that God says not to sacrifice ourselves but I think sometimes people just have to much pride like I said and it happens. I myself don't wanna die for something I love, but I have thought about somethings I would die for.
