Default ~ AMERICAN SOLDIERS SEEKS ASYLUM IN CANADA ~

From: " Bobby"


When Nixon gave the draft dodgers "amnesty", not all returned.


Nixon didn't, Carter did.

....except that's false.

Staff Sgt. Brooks Johnson, son of U.S. Sen. Tim Johnson of South Dakota,
is in Iraq right now.

You were saying? Or, rather, hoping, since you presented as (incorrect)
fact something that you could have looked up in about a minute?

Flight from the fight

Two American soldiers have deserted, claiming

asylum in Canada rather
than serve in Iraq. They argue that the war

is illegal under
international law




Good riddance I say. The US doesn't need their
ilk.

I agree completely with Jarg. Here's hoping the Canadians send these two
cowards back to face the music (court-martial and being sent to Leavenworth).

There won't be a draft in my case:I'm going into the U.S. Navy in 4 or so
months, and I get to go to officer school, then advanced training, then off
to the Fleet. At least I'll be in uniform. And where will you be-still sitting
in front of a computer whining about the eradication of the Saddam regime
or the hunt for Al-queda? I would imagine so. And listen to this: the DOD
civilian leadership doesn't want a draft; nor do the JCS or other senior
Flag officers. They want people in the service WHO WANT TO BE THERE. Volunteers
are better educated, better motivated, and more willing to serve. A draft
was fine in the 1950s and 60s, but is unwanted today, despite what a couple
of politicians in D.C. think.

Let's see if you sing that same tune when the
Bu$h Junta re-activates
the Draft to make up for all the dead bodies
and manpower shortages.
When you or your children get forced to fight
and die for
some corrupt politicians obvious and even confessed
lies, then
we'll hear pigs like you squeal 'till the cows
come home.
