Its cool because most of those peoples societies are primitive and volatile and possible a threat to my country where no one would fight cos we're too comfortable to fight but luckily the good old USA is always willing to sacrifice its young people to save our asses from such wonderful intellectual ideas as national socialism, communism, islam etc
The Bible teaches that God uses nations to bring His judgment upon other nations. Therefore, a soldier who is acting under national authority is doing his duty just like a policeman who kills a criminal in the line of duty.
Romans 13:1 Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. 2 Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgment on themselves. 3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same. 4 For he is God's minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God's minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil.
