Concern mounts over rising troop suicides - CNN.com

 Concern mounts over rising troop suicides - CNN.com

I am nor surprised that the American soldiers are committing suicides especially those who are serving in Iraq , it is quite simple to  know ,you do not need to be a shrink to know why actually. Any Soldier in the world must know why and for what he is fighting , what is the goal , what is the reason , the incentive here is not about money actually , it is about self actualisation and self belonging . The Soldiers must fight for something they believe in , the power of Believe and here I am not speaking about Religious wars to be clear from the start , I am speaking about the belief in a principle that gives you the power to fight back and even kill other people defending this principle.

The problem of the American troops is that they are fighting a war that really theirs ,just like in Vietnam ,in fact it is the same mistake of Vietnam. The American soldiers are defending the United States , good ,but from what and from whom , Al-Qaida and terrorists well those are what I called Vague enemies define terrorism and locate Al-Qaida first , even Al-Qaida do not need a whole army .

The American troops found themselves in Iraq for no real reason , Iraq did not attack American in 9/11 , they do not have actual WMD and did not there is no relation between Saddam and Al-Qaida ,in fact it is a silly joke to say otherwise , so you got vague and false reasons .

Why are the American troops here in the region in Iraq ?? Why did they actually invade Iraq ?? and for whom or for what ??

These questions can be answered so simple in one answer , the American troops are in Iraq in order to control the oil in the Gulf region and to give back up and protection to Israel ,it has nothing to do with America and its security .

Do not believe the American presidents when they say that the American security is associated with the Israeli security , it is a myth , the American security is not associated with the Israeli security .

The Solider must know for what he is fighting and that thing must be worth his life , must be worth fighting for !! Here either they do not know actually what they are doing there or they know that it is not worth it .

The American troopers found themselves in Iraq , in another part of the world different from them totally , they are here as invaders ,they are not welcomed by Iraq and or any of its neighbours , they are hated , surrounded but not so friendly environment can break down the spirit of the greatest warriors in the world.

All these are factors that can push any soldier to kill himself

As I said earlier it is just like Vietnam , unfortunately the American administrations did not learn from its decadents' mistakes

    It is not welcome by any of Iraq's neighbour except Iran. Or else how would explain the Iran' actual particpation in the occupation od Iraq, Its settling of Iranian elemnts in the south and its backing of vichy government.

    But anyway allow to express my deepest admiration of your intelligence and analytical genius!

  3. @anonymous ,Ahlan beek , well I do not think that Iran welcomes their existence either , despite its welcome to the American invasion , in fact she was not the only country from the neighbour to welcome the invasion to down Saddam's regime , she was nothing compared to the Kuwaiti,Saudi and Qatari approval and support
    thank you so much for your kind words are you from Sweden sir !!??

    @libhom , indeed it is on both the civilians and military on the human level , we forget that in the end the military is a civilian in a suite

  4. Ahlan Zeinobia,

    Actually I am a Algerian but I live in Copenhagen, however I work in Malmo-Sweden, the other way across lol.

    As regards the neighbours subject, I am afraid your statements are not quite accurate. Gulf states at both, a popular and regime level opposed the invasion. Yet, govenments had no alternative but support their Americans with logistics. Since the gulf are entirely dependant on the States for defence Issues.

    Iran is a an entirely different kettle of fish at hand. For Iran is actually occupying Iraq with troops on the Ground- Al-Quds brigade as well as the Iranians who had been deported from Iraq at the inception of the The Iraqi war on Khomeini. The government In Iraq is made up of sectarian fanatic pro-Iran traitors who took refugee in Iran while it was fighting Iraq. Also it is acknowledged by all sources including Iranians like Sharaiety and Aptahy that Iran is supporting Persian, as opposed to Shiite, elements in Iraq in the unprecedented massacres perpetuated against Iraqi Arabs-Sunnis& Shiites like.

  7. The vast majority of US service men do believe the official line. Committing suicide is personal and has no political basis. It is not the war in Iraq, but the war period. In ground combat, violence is taught as the mean of survival. During vacation or off-duty, the solider can’t de-learn what was accepted in younger impressionable stage. Many service men ended killing their spouses upon return. Others succeeded in killing themselves instead. The American pursuit of instant gratification melts in the heat of war. It is not the doubt in the just cause of Iraq war, rather the dissolution of the slogan ‘be all you can be’. Individuals involved in push-button wars (pilots, missiles etc) are less likely to suicide.

  8. @anonymous,you got a point here , the ground forces sre the ones who suffer most because they deal with people , interact more ,not all the reasons are political , but tell me what brought them to the war field in the first place , it is politics , they should not be here and suffer afterwards for nothing , for fake reasons , they are losing their minds , their souls in the end of the day because of oil not because of the real security of the United States
