Consider this: When a soldier jumps on top of a grenade to save the lives of those around him/her, would you consider that to be a selfish act?

Oh yeah, just got word that 13 soldiers where just shot down at Fort Hood..."

You make an assumption that because some Israeli soldiers were wounded, there were firearm involved.

So, if you really want to know, many soldiers, marines, airmen and even those swabbies feel like there are many in this country that don't deserve to be protected, but they do it for those who do deserve their service.

A real American is an American regardless of who is in office, just as a real soldier is a soldier regardless of who his commander might be.

Why is a Congressman paid 10 or 20 times MORE than a soldier getting shot at on the front line?

I guess the 5000 U.S. soldier deaths from those events weren't the sole fault of George W after all...Reagan deserves some of the credit for training and arming the enemy...

And to some of us, not having to have sacrificed the lives of 5000 American soldiers for the personal vendetta of one idiot nut-job would have been a better thing.
