47% of veterans with PTSD had thoughts of suicide before they go help
· Since the being of the 9/11 wars, numbers of soldiers who have committed suicide are in the tens of thousands
· After 9/11 bush gave the CIA authority to kill U.S. Citizens abroad who strongly appose what’s going on. They are put on “terrorist hit lists”.

Hi John,
ReplyDeleteThis is a powerful and disturbing story, friend.
And you provide us with a compelling analysis of the CENSORED story here.
Excellent use of our Web 2.0 tools here - remember to "embed" your http links in actual words, rather than dangling them in public.
And you are right - the "bad ass" nature of military marketing (billions of dollars a year) conveniently forget to mention the PTSD and other war issues that arise when soldiers get into combat and then return home...
Excellent dissection of the CENSORED agenda, too - keep focused on the story, eh?
Bravo,
Dr. W
