Just as in Viet Nam, this a war where the people from Iraq don't want them there, and the anti war ralliest make soldiers feel like there is no point, or honor in being there. In addition, it is almost impossible to tell "friend" from "foe", and just as in Viet Nam... they brutally torture, and slaughter the American P.O.W.'s, and civilians. American soldiers form a bond, just like a family. Then to lose this family to sensleless terrorist attacks? By people, who look, just the same as the supposed to be civialian Iraqies? Children, and women strapped with explosives? Booby traps in supposed civilian housing areas? To the average person, to kill without pre "hostile" knowledge seems horrible, and murderous. You see the news, and see innocent Iraqie victims. The soldiers often look, and see potential attackers, and murderers of family. They weren't murders before the war. They need serious mental treatment. Not publicly crucified, to satisfy human rights activist, and anti war ralliest.
