12 Captains Speak Out About Iraq

This is from the Washington Post. I posted it on my blog purely for my personal agenda.

Enjoy: Fed Up American: The REAL Iraq As Told By REAL Soldiers

FedUp,
I was amazed what I heard of NPR today...it was an interview with an insider (a Middle East official? Iraqi citizen? a journalist?), who went on to describe the situation "on the ground"....he said, all of the deaths of Iraqis are going "unreported", many due to wounded and casualties never reaching hospitals, and being hastily buried...Americans not reporting or changing the figures, for propaganda purposes ( as if America doesn't lie!).
When bombings happen, innocents are targeted to teach a lesson to those who would resist and fire upon American troops. Some Iraqi citizens and officials even think that some provocateurs are enlisted and paid to execute "car bombings", to justify retaliation.
The idea that if the Americans leave that genocide and ethnic cleansing would occur, across the board, is viewed by many as propaganda and media hype...though some revenge might be acted out on a small scale, the country would settle down and all vested parties would undoubtedly seek reconciliation and repair of the country.
America is the aggressor, and the Iraqi people are just doing what we'd do if we were invaded by a foreign power...so how can they be blamed? Can you imagine how abnormal, how surreal their existence must be, and how unsure, knowing that attempting to lead a normal existence, in the middle of a war, is psychologically impossible.
I hate what is being done, in the name of freedom and the war against terrorism...it's not worth it, by any stretch of the imagination.

Man I hate when I am right on some things.

"What would you do if your country was invaded?"
