Absolutely blame governments. But that doesn’t absolve soldiers from responsibility in a volunteer force. Absolutely blame soldiers for their own misdeeds.
This notion that our service people are somehow these fragile, perfect little angels that deserve nothing but effusive worship is nonsense, and part of how the government enforces its awful, self-serving corruption.
Fuck the soldiers, every single one of them. They signed up to do evil, they deserve to suffer the consequences. Can’t wait to ridicule them when a few of them get back.
Tell that to the 2 million dead in Iraq. Tell that to the people who suffered in Abu Grhaib. To the little boys who were forced to have sex with their moms, and to the dads who were forced to sodomize their sons and daughters. To the men forced to hold weights with the threat of death, only to have their arms snap in half due to the pressure. To those who were forced to eat their own fecal matter. America, and its military are the greatest evil the modern world has ever known.
They were listing some of the atrocities and crimes commited by the US military. It’s an odd response to what you said I’ll give you. But I believe the point they were trying to make is that you don’t need to understand the finer points of the military to see the horrors it inflicts.
Don’t blame soldiers. Blame their government.

You have zero understanding of the military and it shows.

Wtf are you even talking about? You are just saying things. That isn’t a response.

I’ll also blame the ranking officers.
The grunt soldiers may not have the perspective to see how illegal this is, but the officers should.
