Why Soldiers Never Talk
As an Iran/Iraq war veteran, as a US patriot I support our troops and want them home safe with their families and loved ones. The situation is getting worse in Iraq. Hundreds of our troops are dying every month. While the Bush administration now points its guns at Iran and wants to do the same thing there as it has in Iraq, no one is talking about the veterans and their exhaustion from their tours. Not enough people are concerned about their terrible conditions there, their depression and despair. And not enough people are speaking up about the lack of support and compensation as our troops return here to the US. It is Vietnam all over again and we are so tied up worrying about Iraq's policy or Iran's Nuclear plants that we have forgotten to pay attention to our own soldiers coming home from the war... Or the families of the ones that are not lucky enough to make it back...
This video is NOT a statement... it is how I feel! I want our US troops out of the middle east and back home safe! Isn't it time Americans take back their government and say enough is enough?!
