The fact is, these soldiers have a commitment, something they hold very highly. To you, pulling out against our NATO commitment might not seem like much, but to a soldier who is tought loyalty and honour day in and day out, it's much more.

We don't even know what the soldiers want. Some likely support the cause, some likely are just be doing their duty and don't necessarily agree with the mission.
Their honour and loyalty is towards this nation and their fellow soldiers. Whether our government keeps them their or pulls them out, they will still have their honour and loyalty because they are doing what is requested of them by the nation.
As for what our NATO commitment meens to me, that's irrelevent. I havn't stated whether I support the war or not. Either way, it's not a slap in the face of our soldiers. They'll always get my support.
