Not that I have ever served in the military, but I hear, and believe, that war is hell. I'm not sure why vets from the Iraq and Afghanistan wars seem to be suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) at a very high rate and veterans committing suicide is said to be at record highs. What is it about those conflicts?
Is the "enemy" a little too nebulous and ill-defined? Have we been using new or super toxic chemicals over there that will prove to be horrid once we own up to them (think: Agent Orange)? Are we just reporting and noticing PTSD more than in previous wars? PTSD is a pretty recent term. Previously I think they would have called it "shell-shocked."

This is as good a reason as any to discontinue the drone program...
...here's another good reason...
I guess the "believers" don't ever think about this...
Don't need to say any more, except "Good Luck with that!!"
