    I read in the forums and alot of people seem to be real war mongers, they support he wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. If you believe these wars to be so just, why don't you go and fight yourself?

    Anyone who advocates war should be willing to put themselves into the frontlines otherwise they are just what Jesse Ventura calls chickenhawks.

    To just illustrate what I'm talking about here I'll show you a video called Generation Chickenhawk.

    If you'd like to start a coherent thread along the lines that only people who are willing to fight or have been in fight-land (or whatever) themselves should be allowed to advocate war, please do so.

    But what's above is at best either incoherent with little point or ad hominem with little point. If it's meant as the start of a serious/worthwhile discussion, please frame it as such.

    Just FYI, the term "chickenhawk" has been used in that context for the past 40 years but that's by the by.
