US Soldier Speaks Out Against Iraq War

LiveLeak.com - US Soldier Speaks Out Against Iraq War

Some powerful insight on whats going on in the war, and whats going on in America in relation to the war. I like how he points out that many so called anti-war politicians profit from the war. I wonder what he means by '9/11 is a lie'. Is he saying that 9/11 never happened, or the rational e of using 9/11 to go into Iraq is a lie.

A troop that just came back that was deployed for 7 months had a real crazy story about what is going on in Iraq. They shot two dogs and one dog bit one of their soldiers. Thats their whole story. When I talk to people in the Marines they say how the Media is blowing it up a whole lot bigger then it really is.

Question: What is the difference between what happened to the US on 911, and what the US does to other countries with cruise missles?
