There is a clip going around, youtube will have it, where military troops in Iraq are being interviewed about the situation in Iraq. Most of the soldiers responded saying how they were tired of people saying they support the troops but oppose the war, they are frustrated with the lies of the media and how the American public veiws their efforts to bring people a better way of living, their effort to bring democracy to a place where murder, rape, etc against the majority ran rampunt.
The liberals did not like this one bit, take William M Arkin of the Washington Post for example. Seems he thinks the troops should shut up because the nation is tired of feeding them and supporting their blood lust.
--“ So, we pay the soldiers a decent wage, take care of their families, provide them with housing and medical care and vast social support systems and ship obscene amenities into the war zone for them, we support them in every possible way, and their attitude is that we should in addition roll over and play dead, defer to the military and the generals and let them fight their war, and give up our rights and responsibilities to speak up because they are above society?”—
