What's your point Fishu?
Seriously, most people wearing the uniform take deployments and combat as their duty, and they're proud to serve.
If you have a problem with what the military is doing, take it up with your congressional representatives.
As for "one of the most dangerous places on earth", IIRC they're suffering around 500 deaths per year in Iraq. That makes it barely more dangerous than stateside duty where in the "100 critical days of summer" alone, we used to come close to that amount every year in off-duty accidents. And that says nothing about the chances of getting in a vehicle accident in the states.
The people who join the US military have realized that there are more important things than one's own immediate safety, and some things are worth taking risks for. Iraq duty will come and go, the war on terrorism will eventually fade, but the service to the nation every military member provides will always be needed. Reactionary statements (that aren't even true) about military members getting forced to go to "the most dangerous place in the world" are quite frankly mindless dribble, spouted off by selfish people who have no loyalty to anything but themselves and who lack the ability to see any form of "the big picture". History always applauds those who choose to serve their nation as military members, and it is good to remember those who joined up in wars such as the American Civil War, where 500 deaths in an hour often meant a sweeping victory.
Most dangerous places on earth... What a farce. What a joke. What a total lack of any kind of perspective. What a totally selfish and ignorant thing to say. It's not true now, and from a historical perspective Iraq duty isn't any more hazardous than garrison duty in any other war the world has ever seen.
