Should We Send Illegals to Fight in Iraq Before Giving Citizenship?

Why not send illegals to 6 weeks of basic training and then on to Iraq or Afghanistan for 18 months? After all, if they want to be American citizens, shouldn't they be expected to support the USA? When they return after performing meritorious service, then consider giving them amnesty and citizenship. Why wouldn't this work?

Answer:
Not a good idea they would defect and stab us in the back like they are doing now, our men and women over there have a enough trouble watching their backs...
LOL not a bad idea. I'm down.
Don't just draft and send them there, BUT what you could do is offer any non-US citizen free citizenship for serving in our armed forces. This would not be the first time it was done, Korea and Vietnam saw programs like this and the soon-to-be citizen fighters were quite capable.
No, we have a volunteer army. You are speaking of conscription, and anyway its been done before in the US Civil War.
There was a movie I saw once. They sent convicted criminals to a foreign country to fight some terrorist group. In reality you can't trust criminals with weapons around American soldiers.
no one should be fighting in Iraq for a power hungry greedy traitor like the bushcheney
We shouldn't conscript illegals, but a fast-track to citizenship for foreigners willing to serve up front wouldn't be unreasonable.
This is a good idea..
Although I dont think they should be here I think they should go home... We already are poor enough without paying for their family to be on our welfare systems...
They have the right as non-citizens to join the US military, to gain citizenship. My sister went through basic with some girls who were brought here illegally as small children. They are now serving in the military to gain thier right to be here. Anyone who is willing to die for this country, and proves it by actively serving, should have the honor of US citizenship.
what about whiteys , I know at least 2 who don't want to go anywhere near the army offices , to enlist . start by our own chikins. then we will look on how to get others involved. good day partner.
Only some are able bodied men I would guess.
Sorry but I wouldn't trust them. I have seen too many shots of them burning an up-side down flag and stepping on the flag. Many illegals are just here for the freebies.

Deportation is the answer!
sure why not..too many americans have died for the sake of america..while illegals are jumping fences to come abuse america.
I think we should send the [guilty] prisoners who were convicted of killing. Let 'em kill kill kill. If they kill each other oh,well. If they survive they get the high roller treatment back in prison. Make 'em work for their meals, tv, health care
Yes, train them and send them to fight in Iraq and/or Afghanistan and maybe Iran, when it comes to that. They claim they can handle heat, so...
fight your own dam war
lmao "non-US citizen free citizenship" thats real technical
are you saying the people in the military have a worthless job that should be handled by illegal immigrants?
that disgusts me that a person could even think like that!
No, there are too many good honest kids fighting over there.I don't think it would do their moral any good.
