War Woe: Suicide kills more US soldiers than combat
Loading...
Uploaded by RussiaToday on Dec 23, 2011
The U.S. troop withdrawal leaves behind a country embittered by an occupation that's cost thousands of lives and billions of dollars. And as U.S. soldiers return home for Christmas, the mood is far from joyful among veterans struggling to deal with the personal aftermath of the war. With soaring suicide rates, it's still too early to estimate the true cost of the invasion. Our correspondent Liz Wall reports.

Must be sad to realize now that the US troops were fighting for lies eh? Quick hide it, criticize countries like China more to draw the public attention away.

One thing is to fight for a cause... Other thing is fight for a lie... I feel sorry for the soldiers who lost their time and lives while americans were at the mall back home...

equalmoney. org all wars and forceful decision to 'join the army' will cease to exist for wars will have no point to exist. Investigate the solution to this and all other problems in this world.

@oopsyoufailed hell ya. I think it comes down to the fact that technically we are both Americans. And since you are perhaps one of our most trusted allies, our government would see fit to support your decision. On the flip side, we have to look at potential retaliation we could suffer from doing so. But the pros outweigh the cons IMO

@eternallord
The real victims are Iraqis and Afghans, millions killed and maimed and raped and orphaned. But of course that is not important because only westerners are human.
