in front of friends and cousins, specially that are girls, that u’re joining military? when they are against it..
not that it would matter to your decision, but just to make them understand?
Re: how do u justify?
how...just say thats what u want to do, end of subject. Not everyone has the same goals in life and the same views about lifestyle, otherwise we would all be carbon copies..
Re: how do u justify?
Against it for what reasons?
Re: how do u justify?
you dont need to justify, its just a choice you made, but remember ur choice does effect others around you.
Re: how do u justify?
and it definitely will affect them so don't make goals where you'll screw up other people's lives :p
Re: how do u justify?
what country's military?
Re: how do u justify?
Afridi you are so nosey.
Faizy, you dont need to justify anything to anyone. Its your decision and whatever reasons satisfy you, should be enough for them as well.
Re: how do u justify?
Naw I'm just saying if its for a western country, if he is called upon to go fight it most likely be against a muslim country.
Re: how do u justify?
thats what i like.. but the way and the terms u’re with people, u cant justify sometimes.. and they expect u to explain to them why u sneazed or took a dump 
moving abroad, doing missions, not-seeing family for extended periods of time, getting injured/disabled/killed in line of duty, hurting other people, disappearing for a long long time without any welfare news of self, etc
would it matter? if yeah, why?
Re: how do u justify?
lets just stick to this in a non political and non religion way, thank u 
Re: how do u justify?
Considering the current situation I believe nothing will really convince your friends and close ones about you going into military...you must have already thought about all the positives and negatives of getting involved in such a thing so I guess let people think what they want as long as you know what you're doing is OK/right.
Re: how do u justify?
Just join the reserves and quit when theres a war :D
Re: how do u justify?
Afridi asked you what military...if its UK or US then its a significant political difference...you are seen as a traitor and seen to be working for the enemy...
Its like how black people hate blakc policemen or even more simply how Muslims dont like Muslims MPs...
So the likelihood is that your family ptobably wont understand...reasoning with them is unlikely cos they already see you in a bad light so as for advice bro i dont think there is any...

And why would you wanna put your loved ones through so much misery and heartbreak?
Re: how do u justify?
Sara if thats selfish then whoes gonna protect countries?
Re: how do u justify?
Well what's more important? your loved ones or your countrY?
For me ther'es no question about it, but for others, I know i'ts a difficult choice.
Re: how do u justify?
I know what you mean but someones gotta do that job and I know if i ever made that decision(not that i ever would) i would want to be supported not looked down at cuz I didnt put my country before my family.
Re: how do u justify?
True, its quite a difficult choice. I take the selfish remark back theN :(
Re: how do u justify?
i think that country even needs protection.
Re: how do u justify?
well it depends....
For me it would depend on the cause...
Sara thank God the soldiers dont think like us :p
