a truly brutal force

Results from the Pentagon's latest assessment of the mental health of U.S. combat forces in Iraq have hit the news in the last 24 hours. These statistics are generalizable to the entire 155,000 strong U.S. combat troop presence in Iraq. For instance, on these charts, if you see 10%, that means approximatley 15,500 U.S. troops in iraq believe or have done that category.


Can someone, one of the pro bush, pro war people, perhaps, Please explain to me how this leaves the iraqi populace better off than under saddam?
