Body of War:"Story of a Paralyzed Iraq War Veteran" Part 1

[voiceforveterans]

Pity him! What happened to him? I pray that the government can make ways to support him.

[thepotatovagina]

good job, mr. bush. i'm glad you were elected twice.

[MaTuXo95]

the economi of USE is the weapons

[KayceKace]

People forget this war was supported by man in the beginning. It was a war against Saddam or Osama Bin Laden. It was a war against Terror. Against terrorist groups. We can't pull out all at once, it's not realistic. We've started something that we have to finish. Remember that these soldiers were not drafted. They signed up to go to war and risk injury or their lives. They might not like what they are fighting for but that comes along with being in the military. Support our troops.

[Pawnbroker00]

@KayceKace Stupid man.. life under saddam was better for iraqis than life under bush.. now everyone wants to kill eachother to eat up the power vacuum, the US and it's puppet government especially. And Osama had nothing to do with iraq at that point.. there is also much evidence that he didnt want 9/11 to happen.

[80Blasko]

Robert Byrd should have ran.

[chadpopstar]

President Obama needs to bring all the troops home NOW. That means 100% of the troops home. This war is so stupid, based on George Bush's lies. And what for? To get rid of Saddam? He's been DEAD for more than 3 years! Why in hell are we still in Iraq?

[leeleedaman8000]

@chadpopstar the oil this country is very greedy

[zuchann]

Fuck you.

[drsimi776]

@zuchann : Fuck you too motherfucker.

[zuchann]

@drsimi776 You know, I just got a page from a chick that I met last week at the Payless Shoesource!

[castlemints75]

You made the choice to join the service.I like pearl jam but eddie vedder can pack it in too,all we need is another bob fuckin dylan! I served 9 years everyones chances are 50% your number just came up Jackson. I feel bad that your in a wheelchair but you are not the only person who the government has lied to and you aren't the last. atleast your story gets told what about the ones who have no voice do you speak for them too or are you rolling solo?

[democratickindeling]

Democracy now?...wtf...how stupid are you people...democracy is the tyrrany of the stupid. Thomas Young is a young man who made a serious mistake and is now paying for it...but the horror of this mistake comes with a hidden gift...he has woken up to thinking for himself - read 'Kant's discource on 'Enlightenment'. When will they ever learn?

[funlivelife]

I can't bear to watch this movie....

[funlivelife]

War is so wasteful of humankind but still we persist in being encouraged to fight each other....what a shame....these leaders live their perfect lives and the brave young men are losing everything for their sake...Fuck the governments!! 1 in 4 homeless people In the US are war veterans and I, Today after watching this movie AM going to do as much as I can to help them and support them! Now there's true patriotism for you motherfucking politicians!

[SLACKER614]

bring the war home!! we need a revolution.the spirit of 1776 lives!!!

[TheVeteransNetwork]

Any film maker willing to give their time to tell these stories gets our vote. While so many have sacrificed, so many more need to be humbled and aware.

[mcgrawtim123]

I hate this war, this occupation, this assault on my own country's true self. This giant lie of death and destruction.

This mortal sin....the U.S. war on Iraq.

[MyPasswordIsUserName]

USA is an evil country, anyone who thinks otherwise is folling themselves

[Vladimir0538]

their country is not evil...but their policies are.

Their people are good...but some of those who are in in power are bad.

Simple as that...just like any other country...except that the US is the most powerful country in the world.

[reglcon1234]

ya we are evil lol but in the middle east if a woman is raped she is killed because it is her fault bullshit the middle east holds the most evil people in the world

[Robbybob1]

[custardpie40]

[1samothrace77]

12,000 soldiers committed suicide in 2007

[swedishfish2]

all the assholes that voted for Bush this is what you have caused! i hope you are proud of your selfs....

[BobReidy]

I am quite you godamn copperhead.We lost 25,000 at Antietam.You are in the same boat as Northerners who opposed the Civil War and Bush is our Lincoln and people like me are the Walt Whitmans and the Fredrick Dsuglas'.

[reglcon1234]

we lost 58,000

[BobReidy]

That was in Vietnam.We lost 50,000+ in 3 days at Gettysburg.

[SuperStormfront]

@swedishfish2 it's "yourselves", not "your selfs". I'm an Iraq War veteran, an infantryman. I voted for George Walker Bush. I did not vote for Barack Hussein Obama, the wishy-washy traitor. That was you, I should be trashing you.

[soccerdude601]

@SuperStormfront you are a pawn and have proven it by your statements. read about the truth instead of believing the corporate media.

[TheDebkaye]

@swedishfish2 i agree with you totally.for those that have died.and ones lifes that are forever changed.god be with you.i pray for change

[Stimpitty]

Nice shoes Tomas... I got a pair of those Ponys too.

[angelinakitty]

bushitler/dick=traitors. may they pay the price for this atrocity one day soon. that this illegal war is allowed to continue is an unforgiveable injustice to the soldiers, the iraqui people and all humanity.

[stone1home]

"... the war has brought incalculable suffering..."

How about absolutely unforgivable crimes against humanity? Because that is exactly what has happened: the butchery, displacement, and maiming of literally hundreds of thousands of men & women, children alike; 4000 American dead in the process, perhaps 40,000 wounded.

When is the American War Machine going to spit the blood out of its mouth?
