but it still doesn't make it right. We destroyed an entire country, littering it with depleted uranium that will make people sick for generations to come and stole their resources.

As a soldier I just can't accept it because my entire job was to die if need be but not to harm innocent civilians.

We agree very much on what you just said about the media but on another hand, the media served that war well because it didn't cover it and when it did, it was covered with so much spin that to this day most people have no idea what really happened over there.
