Not in my opinion.

I can't think of a single young person I know that I would sacrifice for those countries.

Soldiers have families, you know. It's awfully easy to suggest some other family send their kids off to die in a foreign war protecting some corrupt government.

I won't suggest someone else send their family members until I am prepared to sacrifice myself for the cause. To do otherwise is hypocritical, imo.
