Operation Enduring Freedom? This is absurd. Bring the troops home now. There is no objective in this “war”, if you want to call it war. A war has a goal and an end. This is madness.

Did Obama order Flags to be lowered in his honor or is that an honor he does for foreign terrorists like Mandela????

So sad. He was in 1/9, my sister battalion (I served in 2/9).

I'm leaving Afghanistan tomorrow morning. I quit. The war is about the military industrial complex, and those that are invested into it. Not the lowly contractors, but the companies that make and manage the contracts. I work(ed) for the biggest of them all. This isn't about winning: there isn't a way to win. Duh.

Our sons and daughters are dying for greedy business. No other reason. There is no strategic interest. It isn't about the red, white, and blue, the uniform, baseball, apple pie, or the American way; unless of course your American way is to be so detached from what is happening by entertaining yourself.

I decided not to make money for them anymore, and boy, did that piss them off. They are not use to people walking away from this type of money. And by being so drunk with money, they didn't want to address basic, valid grievances. Everyone had them, but none have the courage to walk. Because after all, who walks away from six figures these days?

I hate that this Marine died for these parasites. I'm thankful we still have young men that will serve; but I fear that day is going to end once the American people find out that their sons were sacrificed for insatiable greed.

And now I need a job.
