"Drop Weapons" In Iraq

American News Project does a piece on the use of "drop weapons" in Iraq.

I'm not going to get into the the use of "drop weapons" to cover up the killing of innocent Iraqi civilians, just realize it is happening all the time over there. Like the video says, you put a powerful weapon into the hands of 18 and 19 years-olds, something bad is going to happen. Troops are trained to kill, trained to conquer, trained to overpower an enemy. They are not trained to police a civil war and mediate problems in a country where they can't speak the language and are viewed as occupiers.

War is ugly. These kids in the military have it so rough. It's time our pampered politicians got real about how destructive the past 5 years have been.
