Video Games Use to recruit US Army Soldiers

I got interested with the tech news I just read from Yahoo. As we all know a lot of American soldiers are being deployed in all parts of the world like Germany, Italy, Belgium, Korea, Afghanistan, Georgia in Russia, Iraq and some other countries. With the news that I just read from yahoo technews, it is said that the U.S. Army is wooing Americans with video games and Google maps to make it sure that it has enough manpower to fight wars especially in Iraq and Afghanistan. Do you think it is the best way to recruit people to join the army?

I live near the American post here in Germany and knew some soldiers who already get addicted (I guess) to this video games. What would think if a person plays video games from the time he wakes-up till the whole day, or even the whole evening. Having fun by playing is a great one but getting addicted to it is another thing. What do you think guys? Just read the full story in this site..I guess it is quite interesting..

I also received a comment last night in one of my sites about the war between The Hamas and Israel in Gaza. I even watched it in TV last night. The horror, death and emotional effects that it brings to people there are really indescribably.. It is really an act of terror...Please let us pray that the wars around the world will be stopped soon. Peace!!
