Here's how. When you demoralize our troops no matter what your selfish personal feelings are you are providing aid and comfort to the enemy this equals treason.

although it is your right to protest, be responsible and show some respect to soldiers.

I have friends that came back from vietnam, when they stepped foot in their homeland they were spit on,beaten, had their medals ripped of their chests, stripped, and left to die.

Thanks for the appreciation

This is only one of the horrible acts perpertrated by fellow americans. Remember jane fonda? she did not only sit on an anti-aircraft gun, she went into
a POW camp with americans there. when she greeted them she said things like "dont you feel bad you kill babies?" The POWs believed it was an act on her part so the North Vietnamese would allow her in. They were gravely mistaken. The POWs tried slipping her pieces of paper with their social security numbers on them so their families would know they were ok. When she collected all the slips of paper, to the shock and disbelief of the POWs she handed the North Vietnamese officer the slips of paper. Two POWs died of subseqeunt beatings that followed. This is why her life is hell and she begs forgiveness that will never be granted.

So your saying that the people who put their lives on the line,not all voluntarily mind you, deserved what they got?

I hope a soldier never has the misfortune of having you watch their back because you would probably put a knife in it.

I am not sure what you mean by gross misconduct

oh you mean tying grenades to children and having them run up and blow themselves up and you with it. Or do you mean pulling the fingernails out of POWs hands and shoving bamboo shoots in them.

No side is innocent in war, atrocities are commited on both sides.

People say Nazis commited terrible crimes yet the communists commited at least as many and much much more yet liberals give them a free ride.

Hypocrisy at it's greatest.

“In USA Today, John Diamond and Dave Moniz reported that U.S. forces were fighting under constraints "designed to minimize world condemnation…" and that "coalition troops limit fire to avoid killing civilians, and forces deliberately steer clear of destroying electric plants and other infrastructure vital to daily life." They added, however, that, "There are already signs the limits are jeopardizing allied lives."
