This is a common anti-establishment trope but it clearly lacks cognizance into the recent military past. The us military is more clear-eyed in it's role than some like the Korean war. It was a better argument when the us was in iraq. Morale and senselessness were worse in the 90s/80s and the 70s the military was absolutely reeling from Vietnam & counter-culture.
