But then you think you reflect on all that and you're like, you know,

Digital Social Hour

You kill people for the wrong reasons.

You terrorize people for the wrong reasons.

Digital Social Hour

You burned down homes, you blew up buildings, you

Digital Social Hour

basically became a tyrant in a neighborhood that's not your own, to a people that's not your own.

Digital Social Hour

Because when we're fighting insurgents, that's one thing, right?

Digital Social Hour
When Did Protest Become A Crime? Kawa Mawlayee | DSH #1995

I don't feel bad about fighting insurgents because Iraq became the playground for a lot of insurgency from different countries.

Digital Social Hour

People from Africa, people from Chechnya, people from all these places came to Iraq to fight Americans.

Same thing with Afghanistan.

But what I feel bad about is like during the invasion, when I was fighting the Iraqi Republican guard who had a uniform and a rank and a name, dude, those guys signed up to defend their country just like I signed up to defend my country.

So who was really the good guy and the bad guy?

Digital Social Hour
When Did Protest Become A Crime? Kawa Mawlayee | DSH #1995

Because I feel like I'm more of the bad guy because I invaded their country because I'm just doing what I'm told and they're just defending their country, you know, who's wrong and who's right.

Digital Social Hour

So all that kind of weighs on you a lot, but it's good to at least be able to say,

Digital Social Hour
When Did Protest Become A Crime? Kawa Mawlayee | DSH #1995

I don't support that anymore.

Digital Social Hour
When Did Protest Become A Crime? Kawa Mawlayee | DSH #1995

Like I don't support wars.

Digital Social Hour
When Did Protest Become A Crime? Kawa Mawlayee | DSH #1995

I don't support like this military industrial complex.

Digital Social Hour
When Did Protest Become A Crime? Kawa Mawlayee | DSH #1995

And yes, I just talked about how I'm, you know, I basically have contracts for training and stuff.

Digital Social Hour
When Did Protest Become A Crime? Kawa Mawlayee | DSH #1995

I want to continue to train our guys for sure, you know, and continue to equip them with like the best stuff in case we do have to fight.

Right.
