Winter Soldier-pt.2- 5/5

Winter Soldier CONT'D: US Vets, Active-Duty Soldiers from Iraq and Afghanistan Testify About the Horrors of War
As we mark the five-year anniversary of the invasion of Iraq this week, we continue to bring you the voices of US veterans and active-duty soldiers from Iraq and Afghanistan testifying about the horrors of war. For four days, soldiers convened at the National Labor College in Silver Spring, Maryland for Winter Soldier, an eyewitness indictment of atrocities committed by US troops during the ongoing occupations in Iraq and Afghanistan. Organized by Iraq Veterans Against the War, the event was modeled after the historic 1971 Winter Soldier hearings held during the Vietnam War. [includes rush transcript]

She sounds like that nararator in god of war. The ladie that tells the stories. Anyway, pretty sad stuff here

America is not a monster. Those sadistic soldiers torturing, harassing, and murdering innocent people in Iraq and Afghanistan are the monsters.

Their own actions are creating a vicious cycle of combatants seeking revenge. Even I want to see these men punished in some way or another.
