Lets break this into two separate parts.
Part One
Well I will start with this whole Middle East conflict was started by an event that Mia celebrated. The unprovoked attack on civilians and a festival for peace. Over 1000 civilians died in Israel in just a few hours. Did Hamas expect nothing to happen?
Hezbollah then with all their missile attacks to "support" Hamas hit a Druze community soccer field killing children. You are now seeing people in both Gaza and Lebanon stand up to the people who have oppressed them. The literal terror organizations have billions of dollars that they siphoned off of the people they claim they care for.
They used them as human shields. Hamas and Hezbollah launched attacks from civilian areas. War is war innocent people die it's a horrific thing.
Part Two
Now back to the service people. Yeah, it's horrific to say about US service men and women who are not engaged in the Israel Hamas and Israel Hezbollah war themselves. They are at other locations locations like in Syria helping prevent the resurgence of ISIS or another terror organization yet Iranian proxies try and take pot shots at them. Hence the reason for US counter-battery attacks. Counter-battery attacks are when the location a missile or rocket or drone was fired from and that exact area is hit.
Why should US service members suffer if this isn't something they are on the ground engaging in?
Imperial propaganda for the win.
I guess we'll have peace in the middle east as soon as we're done killing all the Muslims.

That is the most unhinged and just flat wrong take I have heard on this site. So with the UAE and Saudi launching their own attacks in Yemen, what does that mean? ISIS-K attacking Pakistan? Syrians attacking the dictator state?
Your take is just.... uneducated. You seem to think that if a country gets attacked it should take it but in these instances above that strictly deal with Middle Eastern countries that is not the case.

I think displacing millions of people, killing lots of people, in the name of national security is evil.
I think pretty much everything you've written is biased from a western perspective, and excuses collective punishment with weak appeals to justice.

So what are you going to say then about Myanmar? Sudan and South Sudan? Venezuela and Mexico? Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the indiscriminate bombing there. Pick your poison it happens across the globe the US isn't the cause though.
Myanmar's rogue military committee a genocide and now is viciously bombing all the other ethnic minorities they can. The US military didn't do that. Sudan and South Sudan not us either. I mean Russia can really be a focus point of screwing up the Sahel region of Africa bringing strong men into power who are killing their own and displacing even more.
The US has had a surge of people fleeing violence in South and Central America. In Mexico, politicians get gunned down almost weekly. The US military isn't doing this at all. Sure you can cherry-pick what you want but I can turn around and give you numerous examples of the exact same thing happening elsewhere.
Oh how about Armenia and Azerbaijan yeah the Russians did a great job of keeping the peace there. I wouldn't call Russia a Western perspective with how much they hate Europe and the US and have run to North Korea and China.
