A few days later they are killed, Michael Moore the maker of this film went outside congress and asked a few of them if they would be prepared to let there sons go to Iraq guess what, not one of them said YES.
most of these guys join the army for a pay check or career, i.e. they are willing to kill strangers (many innocent) to get a pay check. mercenaries. In WW2 the guys joining up did so to defend their country from attack not for a pay check.
I hope America gets its ar*e handed to it Vietnam style, shouldn't be there.
Britain may not be a superpower anymore but it still has influence around the world and I never understand why it acts like America's bitch all the time.
i think you will find Niall that many of these so called "mercenaries" join the army because there very few other career options for them. If you are a badly educated, poor male from a ghetto in america, there are very few career opportunitys the army is a job option that pays regular money without any need for education or work experience.
