Default 1st Month in 7 Years- No Military Casualties in March

Good sign. We'll see how well Afghanistan does this weekend in their elections and how well their able to secure the state, as the US pulls out. No Americans should die in the middle east. Lets hope this is something that will continue

I had a friend that died there cause of 'friendly fire' he was the only one in his unit that died, it was horrible.

His mother was a wreck and to this day you can see she is still affected by it, ppl not personally affected by this just see statistics but ppl who have a suffered a loss because of this see more than that.

i would like to add your statement of "No american should die in the middle east' that no one should die in this bullsh*t war, i don't see americans crying for the innocent civilians they killed, comes with the job however if one of their boys fall uncle sam sheds a tear.

Now im not defending them terrorist, that's not the issue, the issue is i think beyond which side you fight for each human life should be equally valuable.

I know im a dreamer but im not the only one.

(seriously though, im on your side america.. plz don't waterboard me.)

In theory yeah, but I've got a buddy who last time I heard was in the Coast Guard in Iraq. If you exchange "Coast Guard" with "Army" and "Iraq" with "Afghanistan", and ask me if I'm willing to allow drone strikes into Pakistan to keep him alive and with all limbs intact then yeah I am.

Thanks for that, it doesn't sound good at all. You'd think with the technology that exists these days you would be able to figure out who you're firing at?
