<<It is difficult to be sympathetic when they are essentially mercenaries hired to fight in a foreign land. Oil for blood.>>

Bull...it's VERY easy to be sympathetic. Do you think they all wanted to be in Iraq? More than likely most of them enlisted for lack of any decent job ops, or for the college education, or were in the guard. Not everyone there planned on being there when they joined up....defend their country, yes (perhaps). I don't think Shrubco asked for their opinion before they shipped 'em over....mercenaries? They'd almost collect more on welfare.....
