One should force Blair, Bush and Cheney and the others with a loaded weapon at point blank range to join in the first front line and have their tour in Iraq's streets and trenches and serve a full tour with themselves at risk - like all those people they send over there while enjoying the comfort and safety of their office when signing the order. In earlier times, kings led their armies at least by joining them on the battlefield. Today - well, you know it.

Those particular men can't even walk down the street without a small army for protection against physical threats and "free speach zones" for intellectual threats.
On topic though, I agree it's absolutely disgusting and it is nothing new. I met an Iraq vet while I was working in the Philippines a couple of years ago. He joined the National Guard as a way to help pay for college. Someone threw an incindary grenade at the humvee he was driving and it exploded on the hood. He was temporarily blinded and sent back to the US. He complained about the poor treatment he received, especially the poor conditions in the hospital. He was declared unfit for duty and his eyes now have trouble adjusting between light and dark and he his plagued by frequent severe headaches.
