159. If I were watching the slaughter in Iraq I think I would have some
anger issues with that also. In fact, I would worry more about anyone who did not have issues with what is going on over there. He is far from alone and apparently has a conscience. The guy is a hero. He saw wrong and he tried to do something about it.

His explanation of the brutal, abnormal situation he was in makes perfect sense. And he's far from alone in his feelings about that war. Many other soldiers have echoed his feelings and sadly some of the exploded into violence or suicide. That whole war is one major crime and the wrong people are in jail.

He needs to be protected from the cowards who are clearly terrified we'll find out even more of what they've been up to.

Interesting too that he criticized how they dealt with security. Too bad they didn't listen to him. So he demonstrated how bad it was. That's what the focus should be. He has done them a great favor by exposing how weak their security system is.
