It's a taboo subject, but are there times when our soldiers (and I'm talking about all countries here) die for no good reason at all?
lets not sugar coat it, the men who died in vietnam died for no good reason whatsoever...their lives were wasted like dishwater.
I think we in the west so often have the mentality that it is impossible for someone to die in war for nothing. That everyone who dies is a hero in some way.
we have a very romantic view of war my friends...and there are many reasons for that, but it is anything but romantic. And often, men and women die without being heros and without good cause.
