I found what motivated the cartoon. I'm surprised, because it was actually a book by Noam Chomsky.

Morality is not contingent on religion to exist. Therefore religion only detracts from the purity of morality.

I for one, can respect the men and women in the Armed Forces and not believe their acting out of the heart of a thug.
But, I think this is more to say what the government does...makes its military into so much dispensible lives for the thuggish notions OF THE GOVERNMENT.

...Not to be confused with individuals who wish to see liberals burn slowly, I presume.

The cartoon isn't about our armed forces. It's about our government funding opressive regimes in order to "fight terror," which is the ultimate contradiction.

I am in the Military, and not only do I NOT take any offense, I actually really like the video. I passed it on to some friends.
Fight the good fight, and die with the enemy's heart in your hand.
