Also from what I learned in history no one volunteered to be in a war they were forced. You can't tell me that most of the people who died in that war chose to be there.
Quite frankly, what you learned was wrong. WHile I cannot give an exact number on what percentage of people that died were volunteers, there were many thousands who were.
For example, our war for independence (the Revolutionary War as we call it) was entirely volunteer. Unlike the British we did not force people to fight for us (if it did occur it was in unique, local, unsantctioned isolated incidents).
Our war with Mexico was fought entirely with volunteers. Our Civil war saw the first military draft, but it came later in the war, the inital part was fought through volunteer means.
In World War 1 Americans acted much like the Europeans and volunteered in mass. THe start of American involvment in World War 2 came WAY before Pearl Harbor, with many American's volunteering to fight for British and Chinese forces, and thousands more risking thier life to run the German blockade of ENgland. When we finally were attacked, would you like to guess how many of teh men lost in Pearl Harbor and teh Philipines were "forced" to be there? THe answer, zero.
Not to mention those who died in the many other wars who volunteered, and the thousands who have died during times when we have had no military draft (both Iraq wars, Somalia, Panama, Bosnia, Yugoslavia, Grenada).
I have had three members of my family serve in the military (not counting those in the civil war), one in WW2, one in Vietnam, and one through out the 80's and 90's (he fought in Panama, as well as other places). Thankfully they returned home safely. Each one was a volunteer.
What ever history book told you that all American's have been forced to fight would only be worth the paper it was written on was two-ply. That accusation is so amazingly absurd that one can only wonder if you got your information from a cold war era Soviet propaganda leaflet.
As for your health condition, I truely hope that you beat the odds and make a full recovery. I hope that you recover such to enjoy the things you used to do. But, while I can understand that this might be a trying time for you, insulting those who have givn thier lives in the defesnse of others and in service of their country is not acceptable civilized behavior.
No one here wants you to have a game that doesn't work, we just don't like you insulting our history, our heritage, our benefactors, our friends, and our family becasue you had to wait one extra day to play a video game.
