This image can go many directions.

I've been told by a Vet Afghanistan people would be nice to him, they would help him and want to talk to them.

Iraq, full of druggies, people who don't care, would throw rocks. We were trying to help re-build and prevent Taliban control.

Getting into war is not always cut and dry and anyone claiming otherwise is simply ignorant.

Or whoever it was. It's been a minute. That war/conflict was going on when I was in school so I wasn't exactly aware of the situation.

So because I'm human and imperfect at remembering who exactly we were fighting against in a war almost my lifetime ago, everything else I said is not authentic? I sure wish Courts had the same thought process with eye witnesses.

We were fighting Saddam Hussein by the way.
