Bannie would be the grammarian, although I inadvertently corrected your error when I retyped the question.
So the title was a rhetorical question designed to get Americans thinking about how much we support Israel?
There are alot of idiots in America. The evidence is that we had Carter for four years, Clinton for eight and we escaped Gore and Kerry by the skin of our teeth. Ergo, there will be many who do not support Israel because they've been sucked in by the misinformation.
But you asked current military members whether they'd be willing to join the IDF and without exception those that have answered said "no". We have our own military and we have our own fight. Now if you had asked them whether they would be willing to deploy to the battle and fight alongside the IDF, that might have been a better question.
Those of us with a brain realize we are fighting the same battle as Israel, against Islamic terrorism, but we just have different (and many more) fronts. They have the misfortune of geography to be situated in the snakepit.
But asking Americans to Serve a foreign country, even if they are an ally of ours, is wrong.
I am not asking them to serve a foreign government, I am asking them to serve their OATH.
You do not seem to understand what that Oath means, nor, certainly do the seeming majority of the American people.
If we allow the Islamic Fundamentalists to continue on their reign of destruction simply because "good" nations are unwilling to do the right thing because of certain "Political Realities", and we as Soldiers whom took that Oath to protect, do nothing, then we as Soldiers have failed not only our Oath, but our families.
I think it must me be very hard to understand, and Its hard for me to see otherwise,
Try to read some of the posts by some of our older soldiers here, whom I have the utmost respect for, and how they wish they could still serve and our willing to fight the good fight if only our country would do so.
Why do you think so many of older soldiers would be willing to fight under a supposed "Foreign" flag if they did not believe in their heart of hearts that they would in fact be following their Oath to this countries Citizens?
But asking Americans to Serve a foreign country, even if they are an ally of ours, is wrong.
And those Americans that served in the British army in WWI?
Those American fliers that served in the Escadrille Lafayette of France?
What about the Flying Tigers, the American Volunteer Group?
A time is coming when we will have to choose, will we wait
for our country men to finally come to their senses, or will
we carry the fight we know we are in to the enemy now?
