Guardian has a new video linked on their front page, that covers events on and after May 19, 2007.  It's a Flash 8 and takes a minute or two to load.

Spc. Vassell, 2nd Platoon Apache Company Strykers:

We're supposed to be on the way home right now.  We were supposed to be flying home in six days.  Six days.  But because we have people up there in Congress with the brain of a two-year old who don't know what they're doing.  They don't experience it.  I, I challenge the President or whoever has us here for fifteen months to ride along, alongside me.  I'll do another fifteen months if he comes out here and rides along with me every day for fifteen months.  I'll do fifteen more months.  They don't even have to pay me extra.  I just want him to come out here and ride with me another fifteen months."

The politicians all sit there in their cushy offices or their comfy little places on the floor of the House, The Senate, and in the White House. They do not have a fucking clue what they are doing to the soldiers. They do not have a fucking clue how stressed out the military is. How the policies they are all pushing for are breaking the military.

YOU all say YOU support the troops. What a fucking load of crap. If YOU aren't there in Iraq  along side them in this endless war that YOU support...

Don't ever fucking tell me YOU support the troops.

That goes for all of you war cheerleaders, Republican and Democratic party alike, that continue to fund this endless disaster. The same thing goes for all of you keyboard and armchair warriors that cheer on the occupation of Iraq but are too hypocritical to spill your own blood in Iraq's desert sands.

and Via the NY Times:
More soldiers and their families are speaking up against the Iraq occupation.

sptmck at 1%More Conscious has 100% more well chosen words concerning the soldiers that are mad about the longer deployments and the others that no longer believe in the mission in Iraq.
