You aren’t saying that only those who themselves go to Afghanistan to spread the gospel are able to state an opinion contrary to yours on this topic, are you? I support our troops in Afghanistan and Iraq, even though I am not serving in either place. That said, I don’t believe there is an absolute obligation for our troops to rescure missionaries in countries where we are fighting terror.
No....i will be clearer so you don’t have to guess...i think anyone going over to Afghanistan for the sole purpose of spreading their religion is asking for a big heap of trouble...and in my opinion is a damn fool...just wanted to clear it up....and also i hope not one coalition troop has to waste more than two seconds in their busy day at trying to save these or any other people that get their asses in a crack....much less the government of Afghanistan...they have enough problems.
So if you are hijacked on a plane, it should be shot down to keep from endangering troops to rescue you? Do Missionary's loose their rights as free people because they believe in something more than self service? All innocents should be rescued and protected in war or the war is not worth fighting in the first place.
Yes these people knew they were risking their lives to try and help tame Afghanistan, they just serve in a different branch of civilization than the troops.
