War on Terror - right here at home...

All you have to do to know Al-Quida is going to win the "war on terror" is listen to this NPR story about returning Iraq soliders:

Part 1
Part 2

I am so disgusted after hearing these stories I am sick to my stomach. Terror? Who needs foreign terror? We have our own brand right here created in our own army.

Listen to these 20 year olds talk about their terror both in Iraq and via the health system that is suposed to help them.

Listen to another soldier coldly explain that you have to be a "man" -- there is no mercy in the army for weakness of mind. I'm going to go puke.

If you need more graphic evidence pick up the most recent issue of National Geographic which has a expose on the medical conditions and injuries in Iraq. It's not for kids.

God help us.
