The chaplain at the U.S. Military Academy “gave a powerful invocation at Saturday’s Army-Navy football game in Philadelphia.” Actually, he prayed for U.S. troops to kill and maim and make widows and orphans around the world. Here is an excerpt:

We are especially mindful of our first class cadets and midshipmen, bristling on the brink of becoming soldiers, sailors, marines. Ready today to happily visit violence on each other and, if need be, someday, sometime soon, on the enemies of the world, so that our citizens, our allies’ citizens, indeed the sane citizens of all countries, can sleep safe and sound in peace.

Now even a good night’s sleep is due to the military defending our freedoms.

Firstly, I dont think that is what was said, Vance is spewing his own vitriol.

Secondly, uhhhhh, that is what soldiers are paid to do, kill people.

Of course he didn't put it in those terms, but that is what was meant.

They call those who kill people for money mercenaries. Best to beware them.

Said and meant are unrelated. Such is attention getter, nothing more.

All soldiers are mercenaries, for all time.

We were paid to kill, and you were the one that hired us and paid our wages. It was you that allowed the government to drag us into war, you said nothing, did nothing, you and the rest that stayed home safe and sound, and now brand soldiers as criminals.

Such hypocrisy.

By the way Ada, regardless of who wins, the next President will institute a draft, women included.

Maybe the draft is involuntary servitude, but it will shorten/reduce the number of wars we are involved in. Draftees do not want to fight wars.

That is beyond comprehension.

There were 16 MILLION drafted in WWII. Who won????

And how long did our participation in WWII last? If we used only mercenaries, we would still be fighting it.

I do not understand the connection of the two statements.

Draftees are unwilling soldiers who want only to end the conflict and go home to their lives. Mercenaries OTOH fight for money and rank and there are few promotions in peace time.

For us with draftees WWII lasted three years. Our war against Afghanistan has lasted 13 years with no end in sight.
