Hmmm, how to phrase.......
I would not boo the troops, regardless of the action involved in.
I would not disrespect the Vietnam memorial.
I would not desecrate a memorial to Martin Luther King.
I would not boo the President.
Etc.
Because of the greater things they represent. How do you seperate the man from the institution? The troops from the action?
Etc.

Because even some of the troops do not want to be there. Many of them do not believe in the cause, just like the population back home. But they are bound by oath and contract to do as the President says, so they do.
