United we stand, divided we fall. If we sit back and do nothing are we just as bad as the invading force? Just look at how much of Europe fell in the second world war to Germany.
It was only by standing together that the Allies were able to free Europe.
It is easy to vote for war if you, your family and friends are not going to the front line. It is easy not to vote for war if you are not at risk from the invading force. The armed forces are there to fight and die at the governments whim and anyone joining the armed forces should know that and I do not mean that nastily.
If an invading force is not opposed, why should it not continue to invade other countries? Where do you draw the line?
