This is so wrong.

These soldiers are not "laying their lives on the line" for me or you. They are laying them on the line for dick **** all. This is not WWI or WWII. Comparing it to those conflicts is an insult to the people who fought in those wars.

These poor souls are risking their lives for a cause that doesn't exist.
