On CNN Jane Arraf talks to troops,one says on camera |
|
"I don't believe in the mission anymore." Arraf says that's what most of them are saying,they just don't want to say it in front of the camers. Another said "We are not making America safer,we are just looking out for our buddies. Nothing more."

6. Another soldier said "I didn't kill any terrorists,I killed four people |
|
His buddies all jumped in and said they were armed people. He said something like "Yeah,I guess." He seemed rather dissillusioned.

4. Why ? For reporting the truth ? |
|
I remember watching her on CNN International . Maybe its ok for the rest of the world to know the truth but in America , the truth is stopped at the borders .

Prince and it was a "conflict of interest" because of the war? Hmmm. Or am I thinking of someone else. :shrug:
I hope those soldiers vote accordingly.
