These soldiers should be grateful that the American public, which by all
polls overwhelmingly disapproves of the Iraq war and the President's handling of
it, do still offer their support to them, and their respect.
Through every Abu Ghraib and Haditha, through every rape and murder,
the American public has indulged those in uniform, accepting that the incidents
were the product of bad apples or even of some administration or command
order.
Arkin is also an asshole.
