This week, the magazine The Nation has published an article on its website that includes details obtained via interviews with 50 combat veterans of the Iraq War. This disturbing article outlines the emotional and physical scars that these veterans bear, while revealing "disurbing patterns of behavior by American troops in Iraq", including the senseless brutalization and indiscriminate killing of Iraq civilians.
This article paints a very different picture of the war than what you hear from the White House and the mainstream media.
It's not easy reading, but I think it's mandatory reading for all Americans. Then consider: This is how your tax dollars are being spent.
