  • In Switzerland, the basic training lasts a year I think? And is meant to teach how the army works and how to use weapons and not just rifles and pistols and knives. Depending on their role they also learn how to use artillery, mortars, how to use maps, how to use vehicles and tanks, how to make calculations and navigate and so much more.

    The whole point of this is that when shit hits the fan, any additional training takes a lot less time.

    It has to be well implemented and taught well. Maybe in your case it wasn’t and you have a bad experience of it.

    Any country that’s serious about training it’s people to be ready for combat in case of a serious invasion will probably do a better job than one that isn’t because they want to be prepared.

    In any case, I can understand why you would feel the way you do if it was implemented poorly in your country.






  • Yeah but sometimes we put our foot down like with Iraq.

    Except this time, were selling military equipment to Israel, so local company profits are at stake. So of course our government will support this genocide.

    Not to mention the government has the B’nai B’rith and ADF up their asses ready to call everyone antisemite as soon as someone looks at Israel the wrong way.











  • Ontarians saw Rob Ford and how fucked up he is and how he was a crack smoking drunk ass clown, with his brother there was always beside him almost as fucked up as he was and decided “yep, I’m gonna put his brother in charge of this whole province”.

    They got exactly what they voted for. And now they regret it?
