I'm gay :3

Every generation has its own special brand of social degenerates that nobody believes will get laid within their lifetime- from stamp collectors and bird watchers to bronies and furries. The same thing will happen to these spergs as what happened during Vietnam.

You'll go to war, witness some bloody shit, get your hands a little dirty, and come back with different interests than before you left. You'll inevitably begin pondering the meaning of your life and find a woman to pop out the kid you so desperately claimed you never wanted during those basement-dwelling years. You'll have flashbacks of watching men, just like yourself, being scarred or mauled beyond belief. And when that spawn of yours comes up to you during his adolescent years with some whacky interest you can't possibly fathom, you'll think back to your own youth. And you'll smile and pat him on the head, wishing him luck with his endeavors.

I don't live in murikah so I'M FREE to either join or not.

I'm not a dude.

I don't know about you but I wouldn't mind being given the ability to kill subhumans legally.

We're overpopulated enough, might as well clear out the dregs that are taking up space whilst making the world a better place.

Not that my country will be going to war, the people have spoken and they don't want to be involved with Obongo's warmongering.

Feels good.

I wouldn't get called in, because I would be one of those in the science / warfare tech. department.

Can I defect to Russia and fight in their army? I don't want to die for Israel.

Asperger can kill without remorse

The government seeks them more than your typical poofter normal

Defect to the enemy in hopes they'll let me live. I would even dress as a girl and service the enemy soldier as a public onahole.

>>11381585
1973 was 40 years ago, which means you were born in 1958, which also makes you 15 at the lastest point in the war. Stop telling lies

My country does not even has an army.

Not American.

Syria won't turn into WW3, /pol/ is never right on these things.

>>11381632
It's not Syria that people are worried about, it's the tension between countries like America, Israel, Iran, Russia, and now even the UK & France.

Not to mention that Israel has that vile nuclear attack system that's poised to attack every major country on the planet which they keep namedropping at every opportunity whenever war is mentioned.

>>11381643

There has been a trend here for many years to interpret everything as the end of the world.

It's always "different" this time. It's always a special condition which can't possibly result in anything but the absolute worst case scenario.

This isn't even a broken clock, it's a clock whose hands frequently jump to random positions so the chance of the time ever being correct is almost impossible.

>>11381612

Why is that a lie? That'd be how he dodged 'Nam.

>>11381688

It's all about the oil.

Russia is to Iran as the US is to Israel. If they lose Iran then they lose their main trade partner for oil. If we hit Syria then Iran rushes to their aid, Israel will then hit Iran, Russia will then hit Israel, and so on.

>>11381688
>>America

They won't be top dog for much longer if they carry on the way they're doing.

Do you pay any attention to world politics at all?

>>Russia, UK, France
>irrelevant
Oh yeah, because one of the world's biggest superpowers, and America's closest ally are irrelevant now despite both receiving threats from Obongo himself and both having the ability to square off against America themselves.

>>11381691
Who's saying it's going to be the end of the world? Tensions are rising and it's possible that war may be on the horizon, that's not the end of the world and it's not unbelievable either.

>>11381714
>If they lose Iran then they lose their main trade partner for oil. If we hit Syria then Iran rushes to their aid, Israel will then hit Iran, Russia will then hit Israel, and so on.
Russia won't hit Israel. It's a nuclear state. Russia will limit itself to arming Iran and it'll be one of those shitty little regional wars nobody cares about.

Irrelevant since the cold war ended. When your claim to fame is "second most powerful BRIC" you know your country is pretty pointless.

America has dogs all over the world. Nobody cares.

What a joke.

I just hope you don't actually engage in this scaremongering every single time it happens.

Israel is not cute. I hope they die.

They're so painfully obvious that they have plans to dominate all the Middle East. Then they will be a super power and we better start to worry.

>>11381759

England and France didn't go to war for Poland though. They declared war, but it was a token gesture and then in reality they just sat back and watched Poland get crushed by Germany and Russia. They never expected that Germany would have hit them so hard.

The difference today is that Syria and Iran are actually important to the economy's of the superpowers and they would be going to war to protect their own asses, not to fulfill the promise of some bothersome treaty they have with a nation that they don't care about at all.

You make it sound like declarations of war don't mean a thing.

They'll let their regional proxies do their dirty work, just like the other fifty times the US and the USSR got mad at each other.

>You make it sound like declarations of war don't mean a thing.

53 nations had declared war against Germany by the end of WW2, but only a handful of them actually fought against Germany. Declarations of war are often just empty threats used in an attempt to get a nation to back down and sue for peace.

>They'll let their regional proxies do their dirty work

There are barely any proxy nations left in the middle east with an actual military though. We've either crushed them or they're preoccupied with massive amounts of rioting. Right now all we can really do is just keep funding Al-Qaeda in Syria, but we've all seen that they're getting their asses kicked regardless of how much funding we give them since they're just untrained guerrillas and not a proper military.

If we tried to pit Israel and Iran against each other as proxy nations then that could easily spill over into a full blown nuclear war, so they're too big to be safely used as proxies. The only option that pulls Israel's crazy hands off the nuclear launch buttons is direct intervention by both U.S and Russia in the middle east so that Israel will relax and resist the urge to Samson Option everyone within range.

>>11381832
Sorry, my English is pretty awkward, I figured "Knock it off." sounded phallic enough but I guess I was wrong.

>>11381840
I suspected that. Couldn't think of a way to make it work, though.

>>11381836
>Declarations of war are often just empty threats
If you think America or Russia are likely to do this today, you're stupid.

>If we tried to pit Israel and Iran against each other as proxy nations then that could easily spill over into a full blown nuclear war
So what? They have more to lose than anyone else from a nuclear exchange. Iran has proxies of its own.

>The only option that pulls Israel's crazy hands off the nuclear launch buttons is direct intervention by both U.S and Russia in the middle east so that Israel will relax and resist the urge to Samson Option everyone within range.
That's right. Two nuclear powers will go to war with each other to protect shitty Arab countries. It all makes sense now.

The Arabs don't matter, it's what under the Arabs.

If we found a massive source of oil in some other part of the world then Obama would immediately stop talking about Syria, the U.S government would tell Israel to fuck off, Russia would do the same to Iran, and no one would give a shit about the middle east.

Toppling Syria is crucial to the continuation of the American hegemony in the middle east and without a strong petrodollar then our economy will collapse.

I have flat feet. I should be okay.

We're only interested in toppling Syria if the replacement regime supports our interests. It doesn't look like it will, so we're content to let that shit fester, despite the fact that Obama has to pretend to be aghast at the use of chemical weapons.

It's not like Assad wasn't our friend for a decade.

Except that the chemical weapons are most likely a US plot.
http://in.news.yahoo.com/us-backed-plan-launch-chemical-weapon-attack-syria-045648224.html

There is a *lot* of doubt over whether these chem. attacks are legitimate and whatever Kerry might say, it doesn’t look like it was Assad that ordered it. Why would he, he was winning the war.

That's what I thought for a while, and then I realized that there's no reason Assad would shy away from using chemical weapons if he thought he could get away with it. I certainly wouldn't.

>Why would he, he was winning the war.
He's been "winning the war" since before it started and he still hasn't won. Hell, he's not doing any better than he was.

>>11381898
Not really.

>>11381899

>We're only interested in toppling Syria if the replacement regime supports our interests. It doesn't look like it will

That's why we want direct intervention in Syria though. We will just be able to do the same exact thing that we did in Afghanistan, where all of the more volatile and extremist Muslims that we were supporting all just happened to conveniently die in the fighting and then they just happened to elect the most pro-American leader possible in their "fair and democratic" election. Why bother negotiating with extremely religious people that won't support our interests when you can just kill them and replace them with a bunch of opium addicts? Which is basically what the entire Afghan military is composed of right now.

If Obama didn't want to go to war then he would have leaped at Putin's recent offer where he said that he will fully support an attack against Syria if we can prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that it was the Syrian army that used the chemical weapons. This is impossible to do though since the U.S was the one who has been pushing chemical weapons to the rebels for awhile now and they're the ones who used them in this attack, not Assad.

>>11381931
>We will just be able to do the same exact thing that we did in Afghanistan, where all of the more volatile and extremist Muslims that we were supporting all just happened to conveniently die in the fighting and then they just happened to elect the most pro-American leader possible in their "fair and democratic" election.
Yeah, and that only took us, what, a hundred thousand boots on the ground for ten years and a trillion dollars? Cheap at twice the price! What's much more likely is that they'll choose some religious fuck who demolishes Assad's secular state and sets up yet another one of those Islamic states that nobody cares about.

>if we can prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that it was the Syrian army that used the chemical weapons.
This would be impossible even if he had.

>>11381947
>they'll choose some religious fuck who demolishes Assad's secular state and sets up yet another one of those Islamic states that nobody cares about
I care. I don't want to facilitate the genocide of religious minorities (Alawites, Shia Muslims and Christians)

>>11381913

>and then I realized that there's no reason Assad would shy away from using chemical weapons if he thought he could get away with it.

It would be suicide though. Syria has been under the spotlight for a long time now and everything that happens there is analyzed with a magnifying glass. Why would Assad use chemical weapons to kill just a few hundred people when the most recent fighting has been in his favor and he was getting more supplies from Russia than ever before? Chemical weapons are one of the few things that would give the U.S government the reason they desperately needed to attack Syria, and if the story that Obama tells is true and he did use these weapons then Assad basically did the equivalent of shooting himself in the head while he was on the verge of victory.

>>11381952
This, totally this.

>>11381951
>I care. I don't want to facilitate the genocide of religious minorities (Alawites, Shia Muslims and Christians)
Brown people genocide each other all the time anyway. Nothing you or I can do about it.

>>11381952
It's not really in his interests, but it doesn't mean he didn't fuck up and use them. Iraqis have accidentally used chemical munitions against US forces in Iraq.

And I'm sick of hearing about this "on the verge of victory" shit, Assad's supporters have been claiming he's on the verge of victory for a whole year now and he's still not there.

I got kicked out of the Navy after 2 years. Good to go.

>Assad's supporters have been claiming he's on the verge of victory for a whole year now and he's still not there.

He's fighting against guerrilla fighters in a long civil war that will likely last for years, assuming that the rebels continue to get a steady stream of US funding. In these kinds of wars, crushing the enemy decisively is an unrealistic expectation. That's why we've been fighting the Taliban for over a decade. The best thing you can do is keep the rebels on the defensive and maintain stability within the important areas of the country, which is what Assad was doing.

Chemical attacks are something that you only do if you're stupid or completely desperate, and the rebels are both of these things. It makes no sense for Assad to use them, he's not a stupid man in any way and there was nothing to be gained from using them, especially in the area that they were used in.

Little girls are exempted so I am fine.

>>11382013
>he's not a stupid man in any way
I don't know about that, I think that if the regime didn’t respond so harshly, it wouldn’t have escalated into this mess like it did.

I can only hope they'll draft me into some kind of technical job that doesn't involve running around and shooting rifles. Do they do that?

>>11382022

>it wouldn’t have escalated into this mess like it did.

It didn't really escalate that much though, at least not an escalation within the actual Syrian population. Most Syrians are neutral about Assad and there's still a large group that's in full support of him.

The media calls it a Syrian civil war, but a huge portion of the rebels aren't even Syrians and have just been imported from extremist groups in neighboring middle eastern countries.

>>11382036
At the time I read opinion pieces that said Assad probably would have went for a softer option if he could, but that the powers behind him disagreed.

>>11382039

Otherwise no, you'll have to work your way up unless you're already qualified.
