You say that soldeirs are ashamed for killing people in the war. I don't beleive they are ashamed though. I think they knew they had to kill people or they will get killed. And they knew that they were fighting for their country and by killing people, they were really doing a good thing. I think the soldeirs who did not go to war were more ashamed than the soldiers who did and killed people. The soldiers who dodged must have alot of shame. They must have that feeling in the back of their head, that embarresed feeling. Plus, we honor those who go to war with us. We are not ashamed of them. They do what they have to do.

What I meant when i said soldiers were ashamed when they killed other people, I didn't mean everyone, some may be quite fine with it but to look back on it and think,"Hey I killed all these people," can really make you feel bad. For the people that go to war only because they have to, that kill people, may feel ashamed; because they are not there because they want to be, they are there because they have to be. So they are not killing people out of hate they are killing them because they have to. But they would rather go to war and kill people than flee to Canada to disgrace their country because that is looked at as an even bigger disgrace.
