I'm not sure that I understand the question, but people in Italy, since 1985, have decided to go abroad and so on. They go to Somalia and everywhere now. The military goes abroad because they are tasked to do it. They are satisfied to go there. They're not complaining about the operation. For the military, the government or the state decides, and then the military goes abroad.
On April 20th, 2009. See this statement in context.
