Americans are proud to kill thousands of children all over the world yet a slap is so appalling action!! (of course it is)

Yep. All Americans are super proud of killing children. They have billboards on their front lawns bragging about it, each trying to outdo the other. All of them.

this is not true

You are proud of your military troopes even though not one country you visited as peacemakers is now stabile and normal. You have killed million of children, its true. Your sarcasm is not funny, since the real problem is not that much weather you really *are* proud of it, problem is happens for 70 years now - at least.

This is based on a novel, which was Australian. It was originally an Australian mini series. America just tried to re-do it (very poorly.)

I've lived in the US my whole life, served 14yrs in the Army (including 2 deployments to Iraq) and I have never heard anyone brag about killing children. I think you're referring to something you read on a WoW message board or something.

Thats not what i mean , my friend! i didn't literally mean that you are saying "I am proud , i kill 11 children in Iraq" but i mean that, you are proud as an American soldier ( you said "served 14yrs in the Army (including 2 deployments to Iraq" that you served your country by killing innocent civilians thousand milles away from your home,to Iraq Somalia Yugoslavia,Libya,Syria,etc, because you and your co-soldier are the "angels of freedom" on earth. in your place i would feel guilty and ashamed about those 14 years, and i would say that those were my sin years. if you still have a consious you will understand. i don;t know what the american governments or news serve you, that make you believe that this is your duty, but i know the truth cause i have been as a doctor without frontiers in Syria and other regions, that suffer the american care, and i have seen those children i am talking about

I served my country by killing innocent civilians? I don't remember that happening. And I've never been to Somalia, Libya or Syria so even if I forgot I know I'm innocent of those. And I have never referred to or thought of myself or any soldier as an "angel of freedom." This is all just your uninformed perception. I understand it's easier and more dramatic to make broad generalizations than to admit that most things are complex. So you have fun feeling put upon but the big bad US. I'm not losing any sleep at night over it.
