Why do some people kill for god?

Most would say that societies have people that think they believe in god. But I maintain that there is only one kind of person that truly believes in god. The only people that believe in god are the people that surrender their full faith to the mysticism of god. Their god is defined by the religious cult they surrender too. For this to be true one thing has to be evident. That they totally surrender themselves and live their complete life as defined by their religion!
In societies that have a preponderance of believers, there cannot be any real supported government. Why, because governments can form only in two ways. Tyrannical dictatorships or democracies that require rational people that enact laws based on logic and facts. (the logic and facts are flawed at times but that is the way it functions) These laws will inevitably come into conflict with, and cannot be supported by the mysticism of religion. The result is rejection, fighting, and killing.
But wait a minute, there are democracies in highly religious countries. Iraq, Afghanistan and Iran can be sighted. Examining these democracies show that they are shams. In every case they have enacted constitutions that align themselves with their religious beliefs and in some cases give the policy making over to their religious leaders. These are theocracies disguised as democracies. People that surrender to god will do this every time. When you surrender, you cannot think, you have surrendered that process to your religious leaders. If the religious leader say kill, they kill.

American Troops are Killers

Yes, our Troops are killers. And I wouldn’t have it any other way. They have one mission. To kill the enemy. People who make careers in the military are from the worrier class. They allow the rest of us to pursue other directions in life. We are fortunate to have them. They are not peace keepers or policemen or any other nice thing you would like them to be. They are trained physically and, mentally to be killers. Nothing more or less. If they can’t respond to the enemy with instant destruction then they will be killed first and we will be less secure.
I too was in the military. As a mater of fact I was in Kilo Company. Our motto was Kill, Kill, Kill. I was 99% trained to kill. Police training is different. Most of the time police are not dealing with people that want to kill them. They just want to escape justice. This difference precipitates different training. Police are trained to react to situations with restraint. Soldiers are trained to kill. If soldiers are trained to act with restraint they will be killed first!!
Is it any wonder when soldiers are required to act with restraint they can not? Civilian casualties are inevitable! You can call it atrocities, murder, murder in cold blood, or what ever your agenda would like to call it. But the fact is that this is how it has to be. The only time you can call civilian casualties anything other than a normal part of war is when soldiers go into a non hostile situation and rationally make a decision to kill innocent people. This doesn’t happen very often. And even then, you have to factor in the state of mind, that particular group of soldiers were in.
Remember, the new enemy has reduced itself to the lowest common denominator possible. Total atrocious killing. They even kill their own to create situations to make our troops look bad in the court of world opinion. They deliberately use civilians as cover. That is now their mode of operation in Afghanistan. They will cause our troops to come under fire by deliberately firing at them from places containing civilians. The troops will respond as they are trained , civilians will be killed, women, children, and old people in wheelchairs will be killed. If we take these incidences and, tar and feather our troops, we lose!
