The Only People Getting the Purple Finger are Our Soldiers & Civilians

Suicides/attempted suicides for Marines have spiked up for 2003/2004. I guess we'll see what happens in 2005, huh? Since Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) just returned from Iraq and said that our troops will be stuck there for many years and that the Iraqi security issues are worse & out of control, I expect to see our troops suffer with plenty of mental issues, injuries, and needless deaths. And hey, when we have 1000's of missing missiles floating around, the fear of death being ever-present in Iraq, and an Amnesty International study telling us that the failure to make Iraq secure has made the risk of physical and sexual violence against women greatly rise and has made them virtual prisoners in their homes b/c their freedoms have had to be so curtailed, then you have to wonder if the only people getting the purple finger in this mess are our soldiers and the Iraqi civilians?
