I have heard of several people who didn't go, or were persuaded by friends and family not to go, because they are afraid of government surveillance into their lives. Sadly, this paves the ground for Dumbya's next disaster - in Iran.

Returning Vets report it "sucks" and "can't tell who the enemy are". I've been saying for a long time that when you can't tell who the enemy are you're in trouble. Just like in Nam. You can't win either, because a large percentage of the people you kill, wound and torture are going to be the wrong people, innocent people. And that will slowly turn the entire population against you. Time to end this experiment in Iraq. It blew up in our faces. Bush looks like Wily Coyote after a strick of dynamite just went off in his face. He should learn from experience that you can't go to war base on lies, optimistic dreams and poor planning. or you lose.
