we all are citizens of our respected countries.what if a war breaks out and the army needs our help.will we be ready to sacrifice our lives to fight for our nation.
we know there are many people who are fighting for us inthe war.but why should they??they don't even know us.
but they do it for their country.they don't do it just for the sake of money.they do it because they love their country.
because of them today we are living peacefully.
today we don't have to be scared of terrorists.
we should be thankfull to them.
will you die for your country.

Perhaps not. I would die for my loved ones. I would die even for strangers. But I do not think I would die for my country. War should not exist in the first place. It's silly for countries to fight each other. That only hurts the economy and security of both nations. It's a lose-lose situation.

Wars are a terrible thing and each soldier who is asked to kill a fellow human being or to be killed for the sake of their country is being asked something which should not be asked of anyone. Maybe leaders should exercise more restraint and hold off on making wars until every avenue has been explored and all options have been exhausted. Wars should not be the first action to be taken unless it is the war on poverty.

I fully respect the soldiers who are fighting for us, however I've got one remark: not every soldier joins the army for fighting for their country I think. All considered, there's only a small percentage who's actually fighting outside the country. And regretly, there will always be terrorisme, so I wouldn't be too optimistic about the "not-being scared" part. Maybe I'm just not a very patriotic person.. But I love my country and I really have respect for those who are defending it.

I admire the soldiers who are literally fighting for their own country, what if we don't have soldiers like them? As for me, inasmuch as I am not a soldier, the best thing that I could do for my country is to be a good citizen, abide by its rules, uphold the Constitution, pay my tax and teach my children to be law abiding citizen as well.
