Forgive me for my conclusion on the Symbolic thing, I was influenced by the honorary thing which I viewed as symbolic. The path I wish to take requires 1 summer of training, 1 day of work a week on Wednesdays and 2 weekends a month. Paratroopers are required to secure drop zones for special forces or other Canadian infantry forces. They can be used effectively for flanking the enemy or ambushing them (dropping near a forest) as the enemies front line buckles against the opposition they are facing. Im saying this all off the top of my head.
We also live in a society where freedom of speech is accepted, as a Political Science and History major, I only wish to get people thinking on something, not to cause emotional reactions or to convince someone of my beliefs, that is not my intention. Many people disagree with US aggression, many US veterans come home to a nation in ruin while they are not appreciated at all, thats why so many Veterans are Constitutionalists and Oath Keepers in the USA are voting for Ron Paul. Canada knew the War in Iraq was not worth it, Afghanistan was surley worth it, even with the conspiracy theories surrounding 911, who would allow such a Medieval like Religious theocracy to exist in our modern time? Oppressing women to that extent. The Taliban government were 10 times more repressive then the Saudi's.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O35_Ai6EsMU&feature=related Im simply shedding light on the Libya conflict, Im not stating my opinion. If you remembered back to the election, none of the politicians spoke about Libya. Concerning the African perspective, I disagree with it Gaddafi's regime itself fought against African nations to the south of the majority Arab nations of North Afirca. Africans regimes commonly sellout and don't care about their people either, most of Africa's population relies on NGO's like Christian Childrens fund to feed their people. Obviously a Gold Dinar would have hit the economies of all Western Civilization hard, but why invasion? I guess it was like a can of boiling water, they saw it was going on for so long and then finally the kettle blew, after they saw they were going ahead with this new currency. So the Western Powers, especially the CIA supported the Proxy War, I once remember seeing a video of former General Westley Clarke saying that the CIA has operations in the middle east before 911, he found it out while working at the Pentagon.

Now Im sure I will have legions of men telling me I should not join the army and will continue to resort to personal insults, I just read a lot and watch documentaries, thats all. Im not trying to convience any man of anything and Im just presenting an alternative view because I have grown to not trust the "official story" in most Western Media. This is the basic right to Freedom of Speech in our Constitution.

I apologize for not taking the oath to the crown seriously, I was just under the impression that it was more symbolic and honorary in nature. My duties as a Reservist if I am successful will not be any different then anyone else in the unit, Im not going to slack. I would appreciate it if no one personally attacks me for my views, Im simply presenting information, Intelligent discourse is how a real man would respond instead of personal attacks on someone simply because they view something differently then you.
Im just presenting this information, specifically the Libya stuff because I feel it has been ignored in most western media who tends to operate from the "official viewpoint" or "what the government tells them".
Yea I got really off topic, I wouldn't be surprised if this was all deleted, I spent a lot of time on it, its like an essay, haha. Well just share your thoughts if you even care, I won't be surprised of I see a load of personal attacks after this post.
