Yes, I'm very sure about it.

I'm a former US Marine. When I signed up, I agreed to "serve at the pleasure of the President" no matter who that person was. You respect the office, not the person.

I was in the service too, so I respect that, but you said "any nation"...

How long were you a Marine?

I was in the Marines for four years.

If I woke up one morning and suddenly discovered I was on the security detail for the Iranian president, well, that's that. I do my job. I don't share my thoughts, comments, or political ideals with the leader of another country.

I surely don't throw my shoes at him.

I agree with Rochard on this one.
