TQ.
Do you want to convince me, that hitler & the jews -during WW2- were equivalent ? he had a war going against the jews, so who's right & who's wrong ?
Us & them would mean corruption. There is no us & them, there is always "why"..
According to this, Rythem, all the casualties of war are dead for nothing ! I can't imagine that or even accept it..
You can feel for them, empathize with them, support their goal - and simultaneously indict and criticize the manner in which some go about attempting to achieve it.
Casualties of war -are- "dead for nothing", we are the ones investing meaning and purpose to their deaths, it's not inherent or granted upon their glorious deaths in the field of battle or some-such.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies.

I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
