slushpuppy got a reaction from Tim in CV Sunday
I have edited out your GFX until you can come up with something more banter worthy rather than just flame

slushpuppy got a reaction from Chesty Puller in Rant On A Touchy Subject.
I think this mentality stems from the fact that America's military saved western Europe, Asia from the Japs, and Asia again from communism. Certain aspects on the war on terror is despicable, like the contracting of private military and the siphoning of taxpayer monies into corrupt Iraqi and Afghan officials, however you cannot deny the fact that because of the war on terror, Al Qaeda is essentially a broken military organization.
Between 2001 and 2014, there has not been a single major successful attack by Al Qaeda on any civilian western targets in their home countries. Compare and contrast to the 1980s up to the run up of 2001, Al Qaeda was given the opportunity to attack targets of the western allies at will; the bombings of the beirut barracks, 1993 twin towers bombings, the 2001 sept attacks.
Al Qaeda and its offshoots have now resorted to conducting terrorist organization against its own people, inflaming public perception of Al Qaeda- previously they were thought to be a legit organization helping to get rid of foreigners.
Regardless, I wouldn't necessarily call the war on terror a success militarily, but it has helped achieved some of short term goals.
Another purpose of the military is force projection- peaceful or aggressive means.
The sheer size of the US military allows her to be at any where at any time, this is exceedingly useful for natural/man made disasters. Usually the first military to help out in any humanitarian crisis is the US military. The first ships on call during the MH370 search were those of the US navy. This lends credibility to the US brand. It instills trust that US, while powerful, is still willing to help anyone in need.
Ultimately, there needs to be balance in alot of things you do, but you cannot completely disregard the benefits and relevance of the military in peace times

Please see the motto; "The Fundamentals of Pking & Pure Clanning"
Over time, the core of pure clanning and honor has eroded, certain things suddenly became acceptable. However, blatantly paying someone to hack your competition is out of hand. I can't bear to see you taunting the other clan on these boards
As such, these following punishments will come into effect immediately:
@@Allen - You will be permanently banned
@@sudo_ - This was a business transaction until you decided to blackmail the other clan. As such, i am issuing a 14 day suspension for your account on this site.
@ Members of Trauma, I will be suspending any rights from posting any clan-related aftermaths on this forums until 28 Jul.
