The American military isn't saving anyone's life. People who believe that paid too much attention to grade school brainwashing.
If anything, probably 90% of the American military establishment's policies & engagements from 1900-present have made life considerably more dangerous for Americans.
The exception may have been WW2, though that became necessary as a result of our needless interference in WWI (go, Woodrow Wilson). Of course, the end result of WW2 made the world more dangerous for Americans (and the planet in general, for that matter) anyway.
Notice how all these other first-world nations such as Canada don't have "OUR BRAYVE BWAHS PERTEKTIN OUR LAAHVS!" ... and yet, they're perfectly safe.
Not to be a Jinnzaman, but war for America is nothing more than the price of hegemony.
