When I engage(d) in combat operations it was either because I was attacked first or in retaliation to an atrocity. In either case those far above my pay-grade determined in was in the best interest on my Nation and the lives of innocent people. We have Rules of Engagement and we err on the side of caution. I never engaged with (much less murder) anyone simply because they were an inconvenience.
The comparison of brave men and women that put their lives on the line to defend our Nation, our allies, and our interests to someone that kills an innocent, healthy child is only trumped in classlessness by those that compare the child to bacteria or a parasite.
I understand all of what you are saying and I have tremendous respect for your service. I'm not trying to demean that in any way.
What I'm saying is I don't understand the disconnect that abortion is wrong, but killing your enemy is right if one truly believes in the sanctity of life. This isn't a personal swipe at you. If I offended you I apologize. I'm saying at can't reconcile those two ideas inside of my own head I when contemplate a Creator and what he expects of us.
