My son is over there flying and Apache. I feel so scared all the time but more I feel angry. Men like the one in the video are never talked about. How many soldiers are injured and what are their injuries do you see that on the news? It often looks like their mission was pointless, like occupy some stupid desert hill.
They rarely speak of even the casualties and never the full extent as in casualties of Afghans and all involved.
I just want wars to end!

This video should be required viewing in all US High Schools.

This exemplifies the reality of war and not the demonstration teams in their dress uniforms twirling their rifles.

Or the BS fed to young minds by salesmen called "recruiters".

Look at the bright side of this IED victim, he will most likely survive and though sans one of his legs, he does get to return home alive instead of dead in a flag draped casket.


PEACE

..10 myths about Afghanistan..

..In 1988, the Soviet
army left Afghanistan after a concerted campaign by the western-backed
mujahideen. But since then, many enduring myths have grown up about the
war-torn country.
