Support Our Troops, Anybody? (asks Dahr Jamail)

Dahr Jamail is an independent journalist who has spent a lot of time in Iraq during the occupation.

"Nearly one in three veterans have been hospitalized at the VA, or visited a VA outpatient clinic, due to an initial diagnosis of a mental-health disorder, according to the VA itself. These numbers are consistent with a recent Army study on soldiers who have served in Iraq or Afghanistan. Such a rate might add up over time (depending on how long these occupations last) to what could be over half a million veterans who need treatment."
