That makes no sense.

someone has to protect our country, right? someone has to make sure we have and keep our freedom, right?

Correct.

what do we have to do to prove this as just?

If you have to ask that question - I can't help you. You're apparently confused and need to read some history and try to understand why America and our Constitutional Republic has stood for 225 years. It wasn't because we appeased our enemies or were afraid to fight when attacked.
A free people is a powerful weapon.

well we all have our own opnion on that. you already know mine..

I assume you would attempt to appease our enemy and apologize for our freedom and democratic government. Anything but fight for your freedom.

I covered some history in order to provide some perspective but alas, it seems to have been wasted. Too bad. When you get past a bumper-sticker mentality, you may grasp the point of the necessity of war and fighting for something beyond your own narrow interests. Maybe not.

O.K., we know where you stand. Thanks for the info.
