If you mean because you are gay, they can't ask about that. Wittlich put in 20 years in Army Intelligence (with very high security clearances). If you aren't an American citizen you can still serve. Other than that do you have any physical problems or criminal records?

No physical problems despite being skinny... although that isn't a problem... just my natural self... and no criminal record.

i'm glad uday and qusay are dead. sure, we maybe could have captured them... but somehow i doubt it. mostly because i don't think those two would have given themselves up.

The point is, even if they could have captured them, it was far more convienient for them to be dead. (No trial, no attempts to escape, instant assurance that they're not comming back to power, etc.) Capturing them was simply not worth the effort, and I don't think anyone on this side really cares that they were killed, though had they been put on trial and later executed, there might be a lot more complaints about the trial, about the death penalty, etc.

Why is everyone talking about killing? They weren't killed.. they suffered a natural death.

The other one of these dudes supposedly was a true psycho, killing people from right to left if he felt like it, without any reason. I guess some people would hav eliked , if he was put to hopsital or mental institution, after all he can't be held responsible for his acts? Right?
WRONG. Besides... no one killed them. It was a natural death. And they didn't deserve that.

True, but there are many jobs within DOD that do not require a high security clearance - other than a normal background check...for instance, being a cook.

There were a few soldiers I knew that were not US citizens - A Brit who was a medic, A Belize (British Honduras) who was a cook, and a Canadian who was a mechanic.

The question is one of using enemy soldiers for propaganda purposes. We *****ed when Iraq aired pictures of dead US soldiers. Now we do the same thing. And yes, it is propaganda - we're trying to show Iraqis "see, we really are in control; cooperate with us, these guys aren't coming back."

Frankly though, I think pictures of dead soldiers should be aired in the soldiers' country. Maybe that will make people a little less gung ho for a leader to go to war to distract from the shitty economy ...
