There has been a lot of concern expressed in the media and by our politicians about the situations in the Ukraine and in the Middle East and talk of sending troops including those from Canada.
I am pretty disgusted about what is happening in either locale although there are two sides to every story and we are pretty consistently only hearing one side. I also don't want to engage in a history lesson, although if people studied the history of those areas, they might think twice about sending in troops.
Actually if our politicians had studied the history of those regions at any time over the last 75 or so years ago we might not even be where we are now.
However:
If you feel really strongly about military action in the Ukraine or the middle East and are under 40 years of age (according to the website there is no upper age limit), you should enlist in the army so you can go over there and fight.
Or if you are over 40, you should strongly encourage/force your children to enlist, they can join at 17 with your permission.
Otherwise:
SHUT THE FZCK UP!
Just had to get that off my chest.
