How is that any different from the fact that for the most part the
people who decided to start our most recent war, avoided military
service themselves?

Hmm, seems to be a pattern developing here.

Here's a pattern for you: of all the major leaders in World War II, only
one was a combat veteran. Which one was he? Hint: his first name was

Adolf.

Well, so was Winston (Boer War), so was Benito, so were all the Japanese
leaders...

So what does prior military service do for a political leader? Use the
aforementioned Adolf as a case in your essay.

Churchill and Truman were combat veterans.

Churchill was a combat veteran, but not in the Boer War. His army career
included fighting at Omdurman in 1898 with the Nile Expeditionary Force.
During the Boer War he was a correspondent for a London newspaper.

I believe Mussolini was conscripted in to the Italian army but was injured
in training and released without ever seeing combat.

So?

Attack the argument, not the poster.



Attacking the poster is for when you have nothing to attack
the argument with. Consider the source.
