    By default and, to a certain degree, necessity, not necessarily by conviction. And many are just POGs for life too (they help but at least they didn’t go as far as killing). Let’s be fair. I do believe that thinking about what you do is a moral imperative (THE moral imperative, perhaps), so they’re still at fault even if their hands are ‘clean’. And often they come back all mentally fucked up too, which shows an overall lack of foresight more than a desire to be evil.

    Basically, they’re stupid folk, not Kissingers, cut them some slack. They might repent and change their ideas/ways…

      Oh, can they still hear the screams? Guess who can’t hear anything at all? That’s right, the people they murdered.

        I understand, but what are we gonna do with them now? Especially those who deeply regret it? Just incarcerate the entirety of the armed forces for crimes against humanity, starting with those who served in Iraq til today? :/

          Why imprison? Mass murder, in other countries (diplomatical catastrophe), motivated by white supremacy, 100% proven guilt, sounds like execution to me

            Your heart is in the right place, more or less, but you’re not thinking about this world in earnest.

              American soldiers should absolutely be punished for brutalizing my friends and family, it is very earnest. These people are no different from Nazi storm troopers and they should pay for their crimes against humanity. Fuck them all. You are deeply unserious for giving evil people a pass. They killed MILLIONS of people
