I didn’t say it. Iraq war veteran Noah Pierce said it. He also said: “It sounds like you guys in the states are for the war. All the soldiers I know including me think it is a bunch of bullshit. We came in and invaded this country and murdered a lot of innocent people. So tell me how we are heroes.” Pierce won’t be saying anything else since he blew his brains out in 2007 after coming home from Iraq.
This article about Noah Pierce is old, from 2008, but is still worth reading. Nothing has changed: Soldiers who fight in unjust and immoral wars are not heroes—even American soldiers.
Thanks to C.G. for bringing this article to my attention. I can’t believe I missed it.
