It is your SACRED DUTY to oppose evil, whether you are a government or a person.
True, but you can oppose evil in more ways then being in the military. I recognize that Christians have different callings for God. (1 Cor 12:28 & Eph 4:11)Not everybody is fit to be in the military. A Christian's primary service is to God First; Family, Country, and Community are secondary.
As a Christian, our primary fight isn't a physical one but one of the spirit. (Eph. 6:12) After all, what does it profit the world if freedom is everywhere but people still die in their sins? (A slight revision of Mark 8:36)
Sincerely

Agree 100%. My point was that to oppose a just war or also do nothing is wrong.
There is a very instructive story in Judges 19+20. An evil deed was committed, and those that did nothing (”Hey, we can’t be bothered”) were then killed, after the bad guys and those that gave them shelter were killed.
