No, actually it's not. I tend to read a lot of posts on these forums.
Almost a good observation though.....

The reason I said I didn't really like this thread (and that wasn't an attack against anyone) is because there are men and women fighting over there that aren't greek. Men and women that are dying that aren't greek or affiliated in any way.

I understand the whole thing about relating to these people because they are greeks. But there is a bigger picture. We relate to these men and women because they are Americans, like many of us on the boards. Men and women that are dying for our country. Some are greek and some not. Some are scholars and some are just the "average joe."

If we are paying tribute to those that are dying over there, let us do it FOR ALL of the men and women that are dying, not just those that are members of a glo. (Yes, I know people have been doing that and I applaud that.)

There, I hope that helped clear it up a bit, it's a little deeper than simply not reading it.
