Reading through the comments I think maybe countries with free healthcare and education dont have a lot of room to weigh in on this.
I am not saying respect the troops or anything. But goddamn.
Edit: if you are down voting then at least give a reason to entirely alienate all the people who are actually trained to fight.

Why not?
You were the only country to invoke NATO Article 5. Twice. Both times you were the invading aggressor fighting countries half a world away while spinning it as "defense". Where you forced soldiers in countries with free healthcare and education (like Canada) to fight and die in wars you started. And then refused to pay us after the fact.
And what does free healthcare and education have to do with anything? Are you going to claim that America "subsidises" us?
I didn't do shit. I was in high school when that happened. Fuck off. You don't understand how people get pressured in joining and how recruiters con a bunch of kids to sign up using the lack if health care and education as leverage.
I don't understand why solders from other countries even join up.
Me me me me me
You argue like a conservative.
I work with a lot of veterans and the thing that breaks my heart is how many of them really bought into the lie. They really think they sacrificed years of their lives, some of them went through hell, all for the people of their country. And when or if they realize that they were used, it can break them.
Many, not all obviously, but many of them are victims of this self-same system of oppression. Taking it out on them is exactly what the people who pull their strings want from us.
No war but class war.
