::: That does sound correct. There is a significant difference between the 'American taliban' and a person who opposes fighting. --[[User:Mtur|Mtur]] 19:10, 6 April 2007 (EDT)

::: I think there's also a difference between wanting yoru country to lose a war and just not wanting your country to fight a war; with very careful reading of the proposed text, I ''think'' you agree with that, but it's really not very clear. The text 'sides against his own country' maybe could be 'disagrees with his own country's position' or 'disagrees with the decision to fight'? --[[User:Jtl|Jtl]] 19:55, 6 April 2007 (EDT)

: The issue of GI rights is something that is often glossed over within the military. Can you have a bumper sticker that reads "Make Love Not War" in a car you drive on a military base? Can you attend an anti-war protest when off duty and not in uniform? These are questions that many GIs don't know the answer to, or will give the more restrictive answer. --[[User:Mtur|Mtur]] 19:12, 6 April 2007 (EDT)
