Jump To Comment: 1 2 3Many of the rebels who fought for Irish Independence between 1916-1923 were scarred for life by their horrific experiences and many of them became drunks and suicides.
One of the six men who raised the flag on Iwo Jima, Ira Hayes drank himself to death.
Audie Murphy, the most decorated US soldier in World War 2 was traumatised by his experiences.
War is hell.
But wars have to be fought even though people die or are forever damaged.
Through synchronicity, whatever, directly below the Democracy Now story on the death of Joseph Dwyer is the following: "Photographer Accuses US Military of Censorship. A US photographer has accused the US military of censorship after the Marines kicked him out of its embed program for publishing a photo of a Marine who died in a suicide bombing in Fallujah. The photographer, Zoriah Miller, said, “I just feel this war has become so sanitized that it was important to show.” The military claimed the publication of the photo violated embed rules. The Marines also claimed that Miller had “provided the enemy with specific information on the effectiveness of the attack.”
As if it weren't self-evident: the Masters-of -War and their fellow travellers in the mainstream media only want sanitized, feelgood photos, for propaganda purposes?.
...this will take you to a thread and onto the accounts leading up to the censorship of this photographer Zoriah Miller.
