What is an army outside its country if not a violent tool to achieve political objectives?
Such as the liberation of France, for example?

Absolutely - in that case the political objective was to defeat Germany - At that time already the term 'terrorist' was used: -the Germans named the Allied aviators 'Alliierten Terrorfliegern'.

Link[^] The Army and Marine Corps are allowing convicted felons to serve in increasing numbers, newly released Department of Defense statistics show. art.army.jpg A U.S Marine keeps a watchful eye in downtown Baghdad. Recruits were allowed to enlist after having been convicted of crimes including assault, burglary, drug possession and making terrorist threats. Well, that's just excellent!

Think of it as Affirmative Action for felons. We have racial/ethnic/quota's for every other profession, why not soldering. One could spin this as you hating people who are rules-following-challenged. The rules-following-challenged have families too. You are trying to take food out of the mouths of children of the rules-following-challenged. You beast! Change your position, for the love of the children.

That was quite the rant, but, uh... What?

thanks to a government ... for the multinationals,
If that is true than the people killing our troops are the good guys. Sounds like treason to me. Treason isn't always a bad thing you know. Sometimes its the right thing. I mean, I'm a traitor to the Marxist democrats and I'm proud of it. You should be proud of your treason also.

The propaganda comes from both sides: "the Iraqi's love the Americans", "the Iraqi's hate the Americans". The truth obviously lies somewhere in between these two extremes. What is disturbing though is that for the military to begin using waivers for felons this is a sign that there is trouble in the ranks. Quite possibly, the current troops are getting fatigued and need to be relieved and/or the U.S. military is finding it increasingly difficult to find willing volunteers to go over to Iraq. The lack of (troop) supply is probably highly correlated with knowledge of what is going on in Iraq and stories of veterans that return in less than one piece; mentally or physically. I think the real issue is that the American government lacks a clear plan. Almost daily we hear the same routine: "we need to stay" "no, we need to leave" It's a tough choice - kind of akin to: "you started it, are you going to finish it?". I think if the U.S. stays they'll be criticised and if the U.S leaves they'll be criticised. It's really a no-win situation and stories like the above do nothing to improve matters. This, of course, all comes back to Bush's foreign and economic policies - both rather dismal.

Precisely. Goes right along with so many of the non-Americans who: 1. Predicted that the US population wouldn't have the stomach to stay long enough to "finish the job" 2. Are constantly telling us to leave now. Ya just can't have it both ways.
