    Directives to military chaplains urge expunging God, religion from Remembrance Day, public ceremonies

    Just curious, would you be ok with Chaplains if they were not wearing cad pat or other uniforms? But they still did exactly the same as they are doing now?

    Hamas invaded Israel 2023 Megathread

    Sadly, I feel having escalating and violent counter protests play right into the motives of entities like Hamas. All of which can be prevented if the law makers just used the tools they have available to them. At the end of the day, Hamas don't care about the lives of a few protesters, even...

    We had the manpower for the G20 protests. But I am worried for our Remembrance Day events, I'm sure they are going to be targeted by protesters.

    Hamas invaded Israel 2023 Megathread

    I think it's been happening for awhile. The amount of people western countries let in that have no intentions of integrating into western countries values is causing destabilization. The amount of people cheering on hamas shows this destabilization . Wars don't have to be fought in a...

    Hamas invaded Israel 2023 Megathread

    The lack of action by lawmakers have emboldened the protesters to become more aggressive. The infuriating part is almost every country has laws regarding what is allowed or not regarding to protests. Many countries have laws that outright forbid foreigners from participating in any political...

    Hamas invaded Israel 2023 Megathread

    No, and no. Does a soldier have to hate their enemy? If not, do they have to be a psychopath or sociopath? I'd actually go so far as saying, in the context of war, hating your enemy is more dangerous to your allies than just being professional.

    The video is now private. It was showing protesters in Turkey attacking a US air base and getting repelled by local police, in case anyone else was wondering.

    IMO Turkey has always been the weakest link in NATO, and their alliance could very well be tested if this spills outside Israel/Gaza/West Bank.

    We rarely get politicians today willing to do what is right, over what is popular. I feel listening to the popular majority is a trap for long term health in society. Way too many politicians are incredibly short sighted in the policies they push. I won't get into this further, because it...

    Directives to military chaplains urge expunging God, religion from Remembrance Day, public ceremonies

    It is a mistake to remove them. It's also a mistake to tell them they can't mention God. I've personally never had an issue with speaking to any Chaplain, even one's who were not of my Religion. I respect their choice and always welcome their viewpoints.

    Directives to military chaplains urge expunging God, religion from Remembrance Day, public ceremonies

    chap·lain /ˈCHaplən/ noun a member of the clergy attached to a private chapel, institution, ship, branch of the armed forces, etc. "a prison chaplain" This is my take on it. Chaplain is an inherently religious job. If the CF wants to force them to not mention God in any public ceremonies...

    If you break it down to the agree/ disagree columns. It is 38 vs 41%. Rest are either unsure / no opinion. So people who do care, are roughly split 50/50. It just goes to show how polls can be interpreted many ways. I am not shocked by the pro Palestine protests, I am shocked by some of...

    Military chief warns China and Russia are 'at war with the West' and Canada is not ready

    Thank you for the clarification. I assumed the rise of the Taliban activity had already happened at this time.

    Military chief warns China and Russia are 'at war with the West' and Canada is not ready

    I look at the timing of that statement, and we were deep in the Afghanistan War, with many of our soldiers paying the ultimate price. I always viewed General Hiller's as a straight shooter and with the war being very front and center to a lot of Canadians then, he told it like it is.
