What about veterans who fought against the Nazis? Surely they deserve respect? Genuinely asking.
They’re pretty much all dead now.
But in a more serious sense, this isn’t about all troops ever. Some on certain sides have done good. Just in the modern western context of the soldier, that’s very rarely the case.
Chief theyre dead
Sure. And there have been times and places throughout history where the class character of the military is different compared to the modern day US, where our discussions are often focused.
Absolutely true, we salute the heroes of the Soviet Union
and the partisans across the world that fought axis occupation by painting nazi blood over the pavement.
