Well the way you say it means you should hate politicians, not the military and especially not the people who give their lives for their country.

Don't hate the messenger...hate the message.

Depending on the conflict, most of the time these people aren't giving their lives for their country (at leas the people fighting in Iraq aren't).I also hate the fact tha soldiers rarely ponder why a conflict is going on and if it's even worth fighting in that conflict.

Once again this all boils down to politicians decisions NOT military decisions, why can't you see this?  The military does what they are told to do or they get fired (like any other job)

Not to mention that the military is all about the loss of individuality, the loss of the ability to think critically, obedience, and dehimanisation. How can I not hate that?

The underlined are correct and there is nothing wrong with either of those given the goal of the military.

As for the italicized i'm not sure about that (unless they are actually active duty in a war)

The non underlined one is completely and UTTERLY wrong....to be a soldier you HAVE to think critically to complete your missions.

Seriously please, PLEASE use some common sense and stop hating the messenger.
