America demands Justice for the Fallen of Benghazi! |
A ‘foreign legion’, as the other lesser nations have, is built of conscripts, convicts, and others who feel that ‘the soldier of fortune’, or more bluntly, mercenaries, was their ticket to a better life.
When the publication, “Soldier of Fortune” came onto the scene, one of the first covers shown was one of Nelson Mandela’s troops, with his head blown open.
At that time, I was considering leaving the country, and joining the Rhodesian Security Force. One thing stopped me. We had laws in place, at that time, that any American enjoining a mercenary outfit to engage in combat in a foreign land, was punishable by a full-blown prison sentence of not less than 20 years. Oh well.
That was more than 25 years ago.
I still thinkk all these ILLEGAL INVADERS NEED TO BE SHOWN COLD STEEL, AND NOTHING LESS.
20
About 30,000.
By the authority that POS Speaker “Blank Check” Boehner ALWAYS give Obama.
I’m currently in the military. I’m split on this. If these people are willing to learn our language and assimilate to our system, I am for it to an extent. If these people are willing to put their lives on the line to become a US citizen, it’s a lot more than the vast majority of current US citizens are willing to do...
Mercenaries. Obama’s private army.
I’m not even split on it. These guys grew up here (at least from late adolescence), learned the language and culture in the process (in most cases) and, as you say, seem to be willing to put their lives on the line for the country.
I agree.
“Blank Check Boehner”. I like it. I think that’s how I’ll refer to him from now on.
“while he fires how many citizens from the military ?”
That was exactly the first thing that came to my mind!
IF!!!!!
I have NOT heard such, but what I HAVE heard is a lot of bellowing from the destructive politicians, eager to supplant native-born americans, that hate those politicians’ guts, with a servant class, that would be beholden to those same politicians.
Robert A. Heinlein, a deaad white guy, but prolific writer, DID advocate that ‘doing time in the military’ would EARN a person’s citizenship, should they survive, and the right to vote, which he did NOT believe should just be something legislated.
Obama and his thugs WANT things to go wrong. This isn’t a mistake, it’s a plan.
Remember a few months back when they were cutting (purging) 30,000 soldiers from the ranks? Now they’re going to give the jobs to illegals?
Iran had a problem a few years back - seems their local police were having problems beating up student protesters - so they brought in ‘enforcers’ from other Muslim countries. There’s the connection...
