No, they did not, although they were an inherently important part of it all.

Astounding! And I disagree.
We're supposed to be a professional military force representing the ideals of what is considered to be the greatest nation on this planet and its policies - not the overly idealized, misunderstood, and patently misrepresented actions of those of previous cultures. Declaring ourselves to be 'crusaders' or 'SS' or 'rebels' or such only detracts from our assigned mission(s), wastes valuable resources and limited energies, and encourages our enemies...both domestic and foreign...while frustrating our allies and NCA. It's time we grew up; realized the importance of such juvenile actions in hindering our progress in an e-world; and make sure we, our allies, and our enemies understand we will have little tolerance for such behaviors which are not reflective of who we truly are, profess to be, and seek to become.
Perception is reality out there - and it's been that way for quite awhile. This is LIFE...not some effin' video game.
