'Why we are here'
Two-week-old copies of
Stars and Stripes newspaper get passed around like porno. The official
military paper provides much of the soldiers' news, and so they are
not well informed about debate back home over the Bush administration's
justifications for the war. Anyway, they don't have time to dwell on such
things, but rather "believe, and hope, that our leaders sent us here for the
right reasons". - Nir Rosen
