"Why Does Johnny Come Marching Homeless?"
"In Wake of Afghanistan and Iraq, a New Generation of Homeless Veterans Emerges"
Jan 19, 2008 (AP)
"Peter Mohan traces the path from the Iraqi battlefield to this lifeless conference room, where he sits in a kilt and a Camp Kill Yourself T-shirt and calmly describes how he became a sad cliche: a homeless veteran."
"There was a happy homecoming, but then an accident car crash, broken collarbone. And then a move east, close to his wife''s new job but away from his best friends."
"And then self-destruction: He would gun his motorcycle to 100 mph and try to stand on the seat. He would wait for his wife to leave in the morning, draw the blinds and open up whatever bottle of booze was closest."
"He would pull out his gun, a .45-caliber, semiautomatic pistol. He would lovingly clean it, or just look at it and put it away. Sometimes place it in his mouth."
"I don''t know what to do anymore," his wife, Anna, told him one day. "You can''t be here anymore."

We started the unprovoked and unwarranted war on a country that did nothing to us. we have bombed, maimed and killed their people and destroyed their country, and a lot of good troops were killed, for no good reason, in the process.
And Iraq should pay us for that???
You should become a lawyer and represent the man who wanted to jump from the Empire state building but was saved. Now he is trying to sue them from not letting him jump! - Reply to this comment
- connapa--We haven''t done a GOLF DELTA thing for Iraq beyond destroying their civilian infrastructure and murdering hundreds of thousands of their people.
Maybe people like yourself should take responsibility for launching a naked war of aggression against a poor country and sending our troops there to be killed and maimed in an unjust war for Oil and Israel. - Reply to this comment
