So? We want to deploy. I don't know one person right now who's sitting here saying "I don't want to deploy, I want to stay in the US". It's what we signed up to do..mate.

You are either a Muslim or a person that hates the US. Stop hating dude. Respect the people that go to the army.

I don't entirely agree with the guy, it's not like the US created Islamic extremism.
It might be helping to propagate it now, or prolong its existence, but it certainly wasn't the birther of it.
That part of the world has been enduring Islam-based violence since before the US was even a country.
Now it just so happens that some of the people being killed and killing there are white.

But why do we have to respect people who join the military? I might respect their intentions, but I don't know all of their intentions.
Some people could join the military just because they want to shoot someone in the face.
And why does criticizing the US make him a Muslim or someone who hates the US?
I love Ireland, but I think we shot ourselves in the foot in 1916. Am I therefore a Protestant, or English?

@OP: Have fun? At least you're not being boring like most of us plebs.

I honestly don't know how you can say shit like that. This man is going overseas to fight ISIS, to try and retain the whole thing from becoming a huge power. If it wasn't for these people fighting over in Iraq for you(assuming you are American) there would more than likely be lots more deaths and mass killings because of ISIS.

@OP - Thank you very much for your service, and be safe!

Thank you for serving. Good luck to you!
